Piggyback Rider Prepping


Photo-A-Day #3808

I took Andrew over to Capron Park Zoo today. I took him using the Piggyback Rider. We’re going to go down to New York City next week for a Skylanders event and I don’t want to have to take the stroller and there is no way he’s going to walk around the city the whole time. With the Piggyback Rider I am hoping that he will be able to stand on the bar as I walk about a mile over to the place where the event will be. I don’t think we’ll do a lot of extra exploring this time around.

He did pretty well with the Piggyback Rider. He didn’t attempt to step off the bar like he’s done in the past. He made it over to the zoo with no problem but on the way home he mentioned that his legs were hurting. We did make it all the way home, however. I think that he’ll enjoy the Piggyback Rider on our trip, we are going to go super light this time. I won’t be taking my camera but I did get a new Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus phone from the imagelogger program and I’ll use that as my primary camera and recording device for this trip. So, two phones, change of clothes for Andrew, the piggyback rider and some snacks. Gotta have snacks for the train. I’m looking forward to this trip. It should be a lot of fun.

My last day at Toy Fair 2013 – Day 4

Today was a short day at the actual fair but I tried to pack in as much as possible. There were a few booths that I had to make sure to hit in a quick couple of hours. I caught up with the people at Playmobil and LEGO as well as revisited a bunch of other booths where I picked up some free samples of products. Let’s just say that Eva’s going to be pretty excited about the haul above.

Rather than write up everything that I did the past few days, which was a lot of things. I’ve been taking the time to caption a ton of photos on my Facebook Fan page and I’ve included another set from today. Here are all the photo albums, please check them out and let me know what toys you liked from my photos. What do you think I should review for you?
