Today is Jeremy’s 3rd birthday. Kyle asked him this morning how old he is now and he answered “little”. He’s so cute. We took him to Toys R Us so he could pick a birthday present. At first he wanted a Funshine bear (Funshine is his favorite of the Care Bears since he is yellow), but they only had ONE care bear. So we took him to check out the Thomas trains. After showing him a bunch he decided on ‘Molly’, which happens to be a yellow train. Then we walked through the books and he ended up picking a set of Thomas board books, and said the train was for Daddy for HIS birthday. We kept on, taking him through the store showing him the Cars (from the Disney movie) then showing him the Transformers. Then we finished off in the movies. They happened to have a couple of Thomas movies that we did not have, that included trains (which we also did not have) in the box, so we let him pick one movie/train pack to go with the books. Since he still wanted the books and not the train. Well the movie he picked ended up being $12.99 but when we checked out it rang up at $4.99. So I ran back in and checked the prices of the other ones we were looking at and another one of them also rang up at $4.99! What an awesome deal! A movie AND a train for $5, and if you buy Thomas trains you know that those alone can cost $10 or MORE for just the train. So he got two Thomas movies and two trains for $10 plus a set of board books 🙂 He is really excited. Ethan and Tyra were not happy that we were leaving the store with nothing for them. But it’s not their birthday so they can wait 😉
While we were over by the trains, Jeremy saw a Thomas the Train couch. It was very cute and one side can go up so that you are sitting in a soft cushy train, or you can lay the side down and just sit on the couch, very cute. I took a picture:
