I don't think Aidan can say Camel. I'll have to work on that.

Yay vw for finishing the paper! I know that was a slog. Are you all done now?

Sorry if I was too forceful about it.

Oh, I was just teasing you.

Deena! Ack! That is awful. I wish I was closer. I'd go track down something fun.

Are you all done now?

For today. Tomorrow I write answers to two take-home quizzes that I never did. Then I'm done! Done! DONE! Well, until I do the Independent Study...

The train set I got for Leif was a $20 set that Target had. I checked and the width of the wheels seemed to match other wooden train sets. So you might be able to scrabble together a more extensive train set with a couple of the Target kits and a couple of train engine/cars from another type.

Oh, cool Gud, thanks. I don't think he really needs extensive. He just needs a train. He loves trains and fire trucks and he's already got three different fire trucks.

Oh, I was just teasing you.

Cool. I thought everything was tongue in cheek, but I thought I would cover my bases.

Deena, poop to KB Toys. Bastards. Good luck finding Aidan something else.

WHOOOT! All children should say "camel" and often.

I swear, he's had a verbal leap in the last week. He's just all about difficult animal names. Won't say "Mamma" but he'll spout "giraffe", "zebra" and "octopus" all day long.

I just tried to talk my daughter into typing in a message about camels, but she won't do it. We are all hanging out in the basement for a little bit while my wife is napping. Alas, bath time is almost here and the noise will need to move upstairs.

Em said "elephant" a couple of weeks ago. Hasn't said it since, but she did the once. She's also saying "dance". We find she will repeat us if she has a context.

Oh, cool Gud, thanks. I don't think he really needs extensive. He just needs a train.

The Target set looks like a decent little set, but the train that comes with it is really wimpy. I figured we'd replace the engine and cars with better ones after the wimpy ones get lost.
