Little Rascal

What can you do on a rainy day at home when you have a cold?  Ride your Thomas The Tank Engine Ride On.  Today, Owen got a little brave and decided to give his friend Mr. Bear a ride.  It is seriously the cutest/funniest thing and it doesn't come out well in still photos.  You have to see the speed this thing goes (about 2 miles an hour) paired with how Owen rides it like it's a Harley.  I hope he rides this thing until he's forty years old.  He's so good at it now, he can ride it from the play room...down the hall...into the dining room...around the dining table...into the kitchen...and back to the play room.  It's his little mobility aide.

PS...Another noteworthy moment worthy of a blog mention: Today Owen started using the phrase "Damnit!" rather often and in correct context.  It was when his Thomas Ride On got stuck in a corner.  "Damnit...DAMNIT...Uggghhhhhh....Damnit."  I was laughing so hard I could barely take the pictures.  We had a little chat that the word "Shoot" might be a better choice.  We'll see what comes of this new development.
