Batcave

I may have posted that the Easter Bunny brought D the Batcave. I don't honestly remember.

I must tell you though - I knew he'd love it. I didn't know, however, that it would be SO loved and he would be SO addicted to it. He seriously plays with it every day - multiple hours a day. He's without a doubt addicted to everything Batman.

The Batcave came with a Robin, which was KEY as we did not have one going in. D loves everything about Batman and has expanded his knowledge to know that they are the "Dynamic Duo". You may or may not know that D takes some of his "guys" (action figures) everywhere he goes...the babysitter's, stores, dinner, bed, you name it. This included bringing Batman, Robin and Joker (who are all friends in D's world by the way) to the fireworks on the 4th of July.
We walked to Dain's grandparent's house to watch the fireworks which was a good distance away. On the way home, D fell asleep in the stroller, and TRAGEDY STRUCK when we got to the car and I realized D had dropped Robin somewhere along the dark, long walk. It was too late and too dark and too busy to go back and look for him. I had to distract D for a few days while we waited for the gods at Amazon.com to deliver a new Robin. The good news was, Robin came with his own batcycle (or bicycle as D calls them). The bad news is - D still refers to him as New Robin. ;) But he's back to thrilled that the guys are back together again.

So another day, another few hours with the Batcave. Seriously the Fisher Price Imaginext people had no idea that a 2 year old in Illinois would be so obsessed with their product when they created it. I just love it.
