Dominic has been so into his Thomas trains again that we find ourselves spoiling the lil guy. It really took off in Hawaii.. While shopping at the Wal-Mart in Kona my dad accidentally bumped Dominic and sent him flying.. feeling guilty he took him to pick out any toy to apologize.. Dominic picked out a motorized "Duck" train..not the traditional wooden ones... Since then he sleeps with Duck, takes him in the car, to the bathroom (where he had a most unfortunate accident once... let's just say he went for a swim) and takes him shopping.. while at stores he sets Duck free(powers him on) to run chasing him...
So after Duck came "Spencer"... he really wanted Murdoch... but we couldn't find him... Now tonight Ben went to Toys "R" Us to look for Murdoch and came back with a brand new train set for the motorized trains (since they of course don't fit on the wooden set!)

Dominic's face.... just lit up! I guess after watching "The Pursuit of Happiness" last night, it made us realize how fortunate we are that we even have the ability to spoil these lil guys..
Now don't misunderstand me.. the train set is Beautiful.. but after I put it together...its GIGANTIC! So big, it can't fit on the train table.. it had to go on the floor and I just know Alyssa is going to have a field day tearing it apart! So now I'm going to have the task of taking it apart so I can return it for a smaller set... I already explained it to Dominic so lets see how it goes in the morning...

On a funnier note... When we decided to close up the garage for the night to get the kiddies ready for bed.. the garage door came down and made a loud BANG! Startled, I sent Ben to go see what in the world happened.... Well... I am saddened to report that ELMO had an accident...
half in the garage..half out!
Come on.. you have to admit... this is the best pic by far! Sorry Elmo... walk it off!

You know I have to make a serious comment about Elmo here. Yes the picture is cute but on a more serious note your garage door should not have stayed down with something obstructing the way. Safety features should have made it go up right away in case a child or something was stuck there - they would have been crushed. So please check your garage door!!!
It usually does go up.. but what happened here is ELMO was under the sensor!
