All About Trains

Well, it's been some time since Isaac has been infatuated with something...but it's safe to say, he's found an obsession. He loves, loves, loves trains. My parents got him "The Little Engine That Could" when he was an infant. Then, we signed up with Imagination Library/United Way program that gives kids a free, hardcover book every month until they turn five! Well, the first book every child receives is "The Little Engine That Could". I think that may have triggered the fascination. So, every night, we read this book. Then a couple weeks ago, we met some friends at the Duluth Children's Museum, which also gets you into the Depot Train Museum. Safe to say, Isaac was in heaven. Then we went to my sister, Lindsey, and her husband, Paul's house. They have two other nephews and have started a toy collection at their house. This collection has, you guessed it, some wooden trains. I can't escape them! In all fairness, it could be a lot worse. Here are a few train-themed pictures from that weekend.
