New Tractor

For Liam's third birthday, he received a lovely gift from of a new Tractor from Aunt Doris and Uncle Ryan. Liam is a big big fan of tractors and this was an immediate hit. It has a shovel in the front and a wagon in the back. It also has a digger arm that can go on the back should the need for digging arise.

Here is Proud Liam sitting on the new tractor.

Liam's big use of the tractor so far is driving out, getting a load of grass or flowers, then driving them back home. For the first days after getting this device, all the ladies in the area were getting a constant stream of fresh picked daisies from the field down the road. Mummy, Doris, the neighbour's girls... all received many many daisies.

Here is the correct grass collection technique.
This was just in front of the house, there was a wealth of grass to move thanks to the field across the street being mowed.

For the daisy gathering, it is too far for the tiny man to venture on his own, so in this case Uncle Ryan was recruited to be the helper.

Quite possibly THE best gift ever. Can't wait until my little one starts bringing flowers home to me. Of course, in our neighbourhood, they're more likely to be dandelions than daisies....

Maybe Liam can level the dirt pile in your backyard (assuming it hasn't been done yet).
