Exclusively Little


This past Saturday, we took Noah to the McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park (http://www.therailroadpark.com/) in Scottsdale. They were having an event called “Exclusively Little”. As you can tell from the title, it’s for the little guys (up to 6 years of age). They had game booths, face painting, a petting zoo, and those inflatable jumping rides. The also hold a stuffed animal contest with prizes to the most loved, cutest, and best dressed. We got there 10 minutes after the contest deadline. So, we didn’t get a chance to enter Noah’s best bud, Barney the Dinosaur. That thing goes everywhere with him, even to the bathroom. We can’t wait to tease him about it when he’s older. Can you say “Blackmail”, just kidding. Because it’s a railroad park of course we rode the train. We rode it last year when we were at this event, but it’s still fun to ride, ask Noah. However, his favorite part of the whole day, like any event we’ve attended, was the carousel. He’s addicted to them. He could ride them for hours if you let him. We rode 5 times in a row before he started to do the head bob. If you are unfamiliar with the head bob, it is when you start to close your eyes, begin to put your head down, then pull it back up trying to stay awake. Then you repeat. He was finally getting tired after a long day at the park. As soon as we got off the carousel and put him in his car seat, he was out. Check out the McCormick Park sometime, it’s clean, and not too crowded.
