Definitely NOT the Love Bug
I bought Nicolas this remote control car today from Target. When we got home I was all excited and thought he would really love it. I wrestled it out of its plastic twist ties, put in a few batteries, turned on the car and put it on the floor. He seemed to like it. It made cool car noises. Then......I pressed the remote control button. All hell broke loose. At first I thought he was laughing, but then noticed he was literally FREAKING out. I have never seen him really scared before but for some reason, this crazy little car scared the heck out of him. So I quick turned it off, gave hugs and kisses and calmed him down. Until Eric got home and decided to try it out for himself. Same response. I think we will put the race car away for a while and try again some other day.

Yvonne,
I feel so bad for Nic. But who would have thought that would happen.
Dad
Oh honey! lololol I'm sorry, I don't mean to laugh.. but I'm thinking, since the car runs on a remote.. it scared him. Here's this noisy little toy making noises and running all by itself.. all out of control! Poor little sweetie.. I hope this doesn't affect him for life. lolol Sorry honey. I'm sure he was frightened and I wouldn't be laughing if I had been there and saw that for myself. ((Nic)) Grandma loves you!
I do have to admit that I did laugh a bit myself. It was kinda funny. Poor kid. :)
Maybe it was the radio waves...they were entering his brain...maybe Nic is a super-alien-creature from another planet? He is damn good looking afterall.
So we're looking though some old pictures of Nicolas and saw this post - Simon got that same car for Christmas from friends of ours and he had the same reaction! He plays with the two just fine without batteries. Too funny!
