I know I'm probably freaking out half of you when I say this, but there are less than 100 days until Christmas. Yes, it's not even Halloween yet. But the more babies I have, the earlier I start to worry about getting the holiday shopping done. Some of you are laughing right now because you finished your shopping in July and some of you are laughing because you know you won't finish until Christmas Eve. I'd say I'm on a steady middle ground and should be finished by Thanksgiving. Or maybe the weekend before Christmas.
In my last post I mentioned that Andy and I had done a little window shopping to get some ideas brewing for the girls. ("Brewing" as in a witch's cauldron... see how I just made this post more relevant to the current season?) We found plenty of things for the two younger girls, but a ten year old girl is way harder to shop for. Someone send help.
1. Fisher-Price Bright Beats Dance & Move BeatBo - This toys name is kind of silly, but we saw a commercial for it yesterday. Blair went to the TV and pointed at it and said "THIS! THIS!" It's pretty cool; you can record your voice and it turns it into a song.
2. Fisher-Price Little People School Bus - My kids love any Little People toy, but they especially dig the school bus. We have three of them.
3. Y Pewi Walking Buddy - We got this for Blair's first birthday and she LOVES it. She can get off and on it by herself and it helped her start walking more.
4. Wild Whirlpool Water Table - My kids love to make messes and love to play in the bath. We are thinking a water table will be perfect for Blair and Emily to share.
5. VTech Kidibeats Learning Drum Set - This toy says it's for ages 3-4 and that's probably because of the drum sticks. We gave it to Blair to play with in the store and she cried when we took it away.
I hope this inspired some of you moms and dads out there. All of these toys came from the Toys R Us website and they are ALL under $50. It doesn't get much better than that!
