"Choo-choo" aka Thomas the Train

On May 10th Mommy, Daddy and I visited Heritage Park where we spent a day with Thomas the Train. We went for a ride on him which was so cool! I love Thomas and would watch him over and over again if Mommy and Daddy would let me (Mommy says she likes to watch some Dr Phil guy so I have to fight with her for the tv!) It was a warm sunny spring day. Upon entering the park I was greeted with a "Hi Eli!". My friend from daycare, Jacob, ran up to me and said hi. Mommy and Daddy thought it was so neat that I had little friends they didn't know about or have never met. Jacob and I go to daycare together. Once inside the park I spotted the hot dog stand and insisted on having a "aw-dog" that instant. So much for the nice lunch Mommy packed for me! I was a little disappointed to see that the inflatable bouncers were only for kids aged 3 - 8. Not fair! Then we went inside a big tent where Miss Molly was doing a live concert. I danced on stage with the other kids and then played with the train sets they had set out. And what is a nice family outing without a tantrum? Mommy and Daddy wanted to buy me a t-shirt so we went into the gift shop tent. When it was time to leave though I had a full blown tantrum, kicking and screaming for the 15 minute walk to the car and then for most of the car ride home. About five minutes from home I fell asleep in the car, the after-cries still present. Finally Mommy and Daddy were able to get me to sleep. Despite the tantrum, it was a great day!
