Peed and Ta Ta


I had Teddy. My brother had George and Snoopy. Harris has Peed and Ta Ta.


Both boys have fallen in love with the movie Cars, and both of them have their favorite parts. At the beginning of the movie, Lightning McQueen says, "Speed. I. Am. Speed." This is, by far, Harris' favorite part. He says it all of the time (except he says "Peed. Ahhh. Peed.")... it is hysterical. So, instead of calling his red race car Lightening McQueen, it has become Peed.
Ta Ta is an easy one... this is Thomas the Train. However, it isn't just any Thomas. It is Winter Wonderland Thomas, covered in snow and wearing his snow plow. With Thomas in hand, he is now saying "Ta Ta. Ahhh. Ta Ta.", just like Peed.

Harris doesn't want to be anywhere without Ta Ta and Peed. They go to church, they go to bed, they have just recently been banned from the dinner table. If Harris gets his face washed, Ta Ta and Peed get their faces washed. Harris will hide Peed, under blankets, in shoes, in bags. Then we have to hunt for him singing "Where-o, where-o, where is Peed?" until we find him, Harris giggling the whole time. If we lose Peed or Ta Ta, we are in disaster mode. Other trains or cars just don't cut it. Luckily we have always found them relatively quickly, just to have him hide them again!

No stuffed animals or woobies for Harris... it is cars and trains all the way.
