Tractors, Trucks, Trains, and Things That Move

My kids are all boy!  Landon is currently going through a tractor phase.  He can't get enough of them.  We saw one at the park at the beginning of summer and he picked up on that real quick.  His favorite word is tactor (I left the r out on purpose, that's how he says it).  There's some construction down the road from us and we take walks down there just to check out the tractors.  There's some really big suckers and he loves to watch.  He cries every time we have to head home.  He has this little dump truck toy that he calls his tractor and he pushes it all over.  If he is outside chances are you'll find him pushing it somewhere or sitting in it.

Dalin went through a train phase right at the same age.  He loved trains for a long time.  We would go see trains every chance we got.  When we lived in Montana we would drive the frontage road that paralleled the train tracks because trains we constantly going through there.  He loved it.  We even YouTubed trains and let him watch over and over.  He was fascinated by them.  He still asks if we can ride the train (Front Runner) whenever we visit grandma Sylvia.

Braden went through a balloon phase at that age.  I remember sitting in church with him and we'd do nothing but draw balloons over and over and over.  He would get upset if you tried to draw something else.  We drew chalk balloons on the sidewalks, and if we saw a balloon in the store he would freak out if you didn't let him have one.  I used to go to Macey's when we lived in Ogden just because they handed out free balloons to all the kids.
