Car Obsession

To say Doran loves cars, is an understatement. Every waking moment (that he's not eating) is devoted to cars. He wakes up in the morning, drinks his milk, and then says, "Ca'!"


He gives Devin and I specific cars to play with and you better not let him catch you putting it down. He gets all mad and hands it to you again, "Ca'!"

Uncle Nathan came over for dinner a couple of weeks ago. Doran showed him a car and Nathan responded by making the usual car "brrmmm..." noise. A little later Nathan made the comment, "I didn't realize me saying 'brrmmm' was a binding contract" as Doran insisted that he continue playing cars with him.

He finds cars to play with, wherever we go:


He could watch the movie Cars every day, if we let him. One of my favorite pictures of Doran is this one (I'm still sad that it is so blurry):


We had him watch Cars as we cut his hair, and he was so anxious about Lightening being lost from Mack, he shouted along, "MACK!!!"

One night while I was at YW, Devin tipped our old couch (it previously belonged to his Aunt) and found Doran a whole bunch of new cars. Doran was so excited to have new cars.

We decided to feed his obsession and bought him a Cozy Coupe. The first 2-3 days, all he did was get in and out. No one was allowed to touch his car. And he cried every time we made him do something else. I'm pretty sure it is the most he's cried in his whole life.

He'll do other things now (that involve cars), but he still likes getting in his Cozy Coupe!

Hey! No texting and driving!
