since christmas last year i've been meaning to buy gavin a few additional pieces for his train set in order to optimize the track layout. so while gavin and i were in target yesterday exploring the "boy" aisles (as gavin likes to call them) i found a figure-8 wooden set that i bought. i guess we should call it an early christmas present. immediately after buying it i felt guilty for not buying brooke something, and i knew i'd get the question... and then it dawned on me. i am giving her a special christmas present by taking her to see the nutcracker next week. those tickets were way more expensive than gavin's train track! thankfully, brooke was completely accepting of my answer, and gavin loves the new addition to his train set. it turns out the set came with a battery-operated percy, which has been very exciting for gavin! today i put the new track layout together on gavin's train table, and we played for a good hour. i ran to get my camera because who can resist a little boy and his trains? simply adorable.
