I wanna be a cho-cho train!

Today as I was walking A to school we were talking about what his color of the day would be. It is his turn to be purple at preschool. So I asked him "Are you excited to be purple today?" He immediately responded "No, I wanna be a cho-cho train"

Oh the life of a 3 year old who is obsessed with trains! I wonder when he will notice that there are other toys out there, worthy of his attention.

The Scooter Bandit

Yesterday C wanted to ride his scooter to the park, so he came in side and asked if i had seen it. I told him no, it was right where he left it before school on Friday. I went outside to help him look after about 20 minutes of looking everywhere it was still not found. We came to the conclusion that someone took it.

The theft was my fault, normally I keep our gate closed (i've included a picture of the outside of our house so you can see how the gate is). I was a bit rushed on friday and didn't lock it back up. So the scooter decided to follow someone else home :(

C was devestated! He rides his scooter every chance he gets, so Saturday night I got off my tired butt and made a run to Target to replace the scooter. When he woke up this morning he was excited to see that I fixed my mistake. Life is good again in the Hirschi house!

Family Picture Day

We went and had some family pictures done by a very cool photographer in Sacramento. She was so good with the kids and was able to capture moments just the way I imagined! If you are in the market for a photographer I highly recommend her! Her site is http://www.monikaelenaphoto.com/

Asleep like their Dead!

I have 2 kids that will sleep anywhere! Seriously! M has been know to curl up in shopping carts, parks, if she's tired nothing will stop her! Well it was no surprise that her little brother A does the same thing. Here is a picture of him at the park on Labor Day, curled up asleep under the blanket. You can barely see him there! It was easily 95 degrees outside, but he insisted on having the blanket over him.

Addicted to Thomas!

My sweet little boy is turning 3! So we decided to take him to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, there they have Thomas the Train. My Thomas addicted boy ran as fast as he could to Thomas Town. Once there we couldn't get him to leave! He rode Thomas the Train, Harold the Helicopter and Bertie Bus. M was almost as excited as him to ride Thomas. His favorite part of the whole day...playing with the train table in the gift shop. He has more trains at home than they had in the gift shop, but that's where he spent the majority of his day. Thomas Town was a little small, but I provided hours of entertainment to our Thomas addicted boy!
