Even though we've had it for months, we only recently took it out for a spin around the neighborhood. Since we live in a townhouse with no garage, we have ours stored on the deck and it's a huge pain to haul it through the house to get it outside. Each time I've wanted to use it, I would find it filled with rainwater or leaves and the need to clean it made me instantly lose interest in taking the triplets for a ride.
I finally rediscovered my motivation, cleaned the wagon and had my father help me haul the wagon outside one August afternoon. The children were immediately fascinated and wanted to check it out. I parked the wagon in front of the house and loaded the kids in one by one. We then took it around the court a few times over. They loved it with the exception of Kiera but only when it stopped moving. It really is a great alternative to the stroller and the trio look adorable in it! Hopefully this will be the first of many enjoyable choo choo rides for years to come!

oh----I do love the choo-choo wagon. I still can't part with mine!! Maybe when they start high-school!!!
so fun! I'm glad you cleaned it up and took it for a spin! Makes me excited to use mine! OUr orange one is faded as well from the sun but at $85 who cares right?
Oh how fun, I absolutely love it!!! I bet they are just enjoying being outside, I also love the toothbrushes they are going to be experts pretty soon:)
I luv the first pic with the glow0that is an awesome deal you got, we'll have to go on walks to the park together!
OMGOSH! They look sooooo cute! lol
It looks like they will have fun in the choo choo. I'm glad you have one!
So adorable!!! We too have to keep our wagon on our porch. But we use a tarp to put over it and it keeps all the leaves and rain out! And it's easy to take the tarp on/off (much less time than having to clean it out). I have this ever growing fear that something on our wagon is going to break and I won't be able to replace it! I hope Step 2 makes it again soon!!!!!!
That Choo Choo wagon has been a hot comodity for MANY YEARS. We bought ours in 2001 (we have twins so we didn't buy the 3rd car and I always regreted it- it would have been great to haul diaper bags etc.) I remember the news that they were discontinuing the wagon spreading through Cyberspace. I think we ordered ours from a toy store in Oklahoma and had it shipped.
I'm glad they are enjoying the wagon- they sure look cute in it!
