I went over to my sister's today to discuss a bridal shower we are throwing for my brother's fiance. Kimmie and Mom came over too. I got there early, as usual and we had to go out to the backyard and play on the playground and in the sandbox. Although Jack really just runs around like a nutbag. :)
He has this car they bought for him. It looks like a Flintstone car and the floor is missing where his feet are so Jack has to move the car with his feet, kinda like the Flintstones. :) It's cute. He doesn't really move much but it's cute to see him in it. Eventually he'll get the idea.
He's looking like "um, um, um...what do i do?" "How come this contraption doesn't move on it's own? You know other kids in this neighborhood have the battery-powered cars? How come I don't get one of those? So much for keeping up with the Jones's." Okay, um, maybe he doesn't think that but it's funny to think it. :)
Come to think of it, the car industry is planning to create a futuristic Flintstone car that weighs only 600 lbs. Search for it, if you guys have some time. It's pretty fantastic. What I saw was the blue one, and it looked robotic.

Please don't post this, cause I'm venturing off the point of the post, but could you make sure I get an invite to Kelly's shower??

I was going to say the same thing about the driveway. We had him in it on the driveway and he went like crazy in it and kept trying to go down the street in it.

Okay, I think Autie Jen will have to splurge and buy him a battery powered JD gator for Christmas. JK
Seriously those cars are great, both my kids love it. Work much better/easier in the driveway though. Flinstone car is a great analogy.

Cool!, the Little Tykes car. Alex and Trey had one! They both had fun in it, six years apart! It'll be good for his leg muscles!!
