Roary the Racing Car!

Becky still had some cash stuffed into one of Paul’s birthday cards from three months ago, so we figured we’d better let him get a very, very late present with it. We went to the local Toys R’ Us and Paul was in heaven! I put him in one of those Big Wheels cars that was perfect for his size, and he cruised around part of the store with a mischievous grin across his face. Unfortunately, he didn’t have that much birthday money, and I can only imagine how much stuff would get broken if he was driving a car through the house. So, we settled for a remote controlled Ferrari.

On one of the Thomas the Train videos that Paul watches continuously, there is a preview for some show called Roary the Racing Car. So when he started driving this car around the driveway he was singing the theme song over and over again. ROOOOARY the Racing Car!!

Paul’s dad was almost as big of a fan of Roary the remote control car as Paul was. We built a ramp in the driveway, drove it down the street dodging oncoming traffic, and ran it into the grass.

I’m pretty sure we about ran the batteries out on the first day. So now we know how easy it is to keep me and Paul occupied for an extended period of time.
