On Saturday, we went to experience a Day Out with Thomas for the second year in a row. Finn was able to enjoy it so much more this year, and we had a great time.
The forecast said it would be 94 degrees and sunny in Union, IL, where the event took place, and so I really tried to convince Sona not to go. I didn’t want her to go into labor on Thomas–or at all. But Finn has literally been talking about this event for months, ever since we first bought the tickets in early April. So, there was no way I was going to talk Sona out of going. We both wanted to be there for our boy.
Luckily, it was cloudy for most of the morning, and it even drizzled a bit. We welcomed the mist and the cloudiness, as we were just happy to avoid full sun.
Finn was so excited to ride Thomas and Percy, and we were excited to make the most of what will likely be one of our last pre-baby weekend.
Here are a ton of picks, including some last year/this year comparisons!
When you ask a very busy toddler to smile, this is what you get…
Riding these little trains was also a highlight of last year’s event:
Same train last year:
He’s grown just a bit…
He is OBSESSED with this tattoo. We’ve had to be very careful not to wash it off.
What a difference a year makes:
I love this boy more than words.
Wanted a quick train “massage”…
