Keep on Truckin'

"K" officially entered the world of two-year-olds on Sunday.  We enjoyed a breakfast out with Grandma and Grandpa, and then headed to Orscheln's to take in "Chick Days."  Not familiar with "Chick Days?"  Well, read on then, my friends!

Orscheln's conducts this event, in the early spring, each year.  This is the time when baby chicks and bunnies are for sale.  Little kids go ga-ga over chicks and bunnies, this is a fact!  So, we thought since we were in town, why not go check it out?  "K" viewed the chicks and bunnies and then found the toy aisle.

Mr. Fixit and I really did not know what to get him for his birthday.  So, this actually turned out to be a win-win for all involved.  The toy pictured here is what "K" picked out.  It is pretty cool!  The trailer part lowers and the little wood cars can be driven on and off of it.  The entire toy is carved out of wood!  Mr. Fixit also informed me that the wheels are riveted to the car frames.  i.e. -- They are virtually indestructible!  Bonus, bonus, bonus!  The brand of the toy is Melissa & Doug.  We have several puzzles by them, and all their stuff is durable.  If you are curious, visit their site to check them out!
