Sesame Street Remote Control

While Kara was at our house and while we were at Kara's house, Nathan packed around Max's toy remoted control. . . the whole time (sorry Max). He was quite addicted to the thing and all of it's funny sayings and sounds, especially Cookie Monster and Grouch. I intended to get one for him while we were in Utah (not sold at Walmart in Rexburg) but I talked myself out of it. Mostly it was just another stop in a rather quick trip.

Kara solved that for us. Nathan received a package in the mail yesterday, along with his free book that comes once a month from the Dolly Parton Imagination Library. He wasn't sure what to open first so I suggested the book, partly because I didn't know what Kara had sent and I assumed it was something that we left at her house. We read his book while the box was sitting on his lap - oh the self control that boy has! As soon as we turned to the last page he said "All done, open present".

At first he was a little puzzled, squelching his initial excitement, and matter of factly questioned, "Max's remote??" When I told him that Kara had sent it just for him - to KEEP!, oh the excitement started to ooze.

I hope Christmas goes over this well.

THANKS KARA!!

He even slept with it last night, I know from the Sesame Street voices and sounds that randomly went off during the night, probably from him rolling over.

That's a great toy. That might be a good one for Logan to keep his little paws off the real remotes.

How expressive. This kid actually looks exactly like your toddler pictures. I just realized that with the first picture. It's totally you!

I loved that remote so much I might go buy one. It was awesome! Whoever thought of it really knows how to entertain a child.

He looks so happy! I'm glad he got one - what a great Aunt he has.

That is an amazing little one you have there. I love the initial reaction of "Max's remote?" to the overjoyed excitement once he learned it was his! How cute!
