One more day to go in November. That also means I have only one more day to get my license plates renewed. Mmmm…
On to my bad parenting. Minnow is 20 months old tomorrow. I can hardly believe it. Well, my mom got his present today–who knew stores could ship something so fast. We picked it up and decided to give it to him early (my mom was totally cool with that). It is something we have been wanting to get him and knew it would also be the only thing he would want to play with for at least 3 or 4 days. Minnow has lots of grandparents who are all going to give him cool stuff and my MIL is coming for Christmas this year. I didn’t want my mom’s gift to be the only one he wanted to play with on Christmas and quite frankly Minnow needed a new toy–something big and bold that would keep him from wanting to climb into the dishwasher or crawl into the oven. Minnow now has a play kitchen and a Christmas present in November.
I figure this is the last year I can get away with giving him his presents early as next year he will be too aware of what is going on. Did I mention the outdoor playhouse we bought him also arrived–we’re putting it up this weekend.

That’s not bad parenting…it’s smart parenting:)

Teeny loves PL’s toy kitchen, too. He served me fake pickles all day long today. Of course, he too prefers the real dishwasher and would love to get a closer look at the oven (fortunately ours is up high so I have been able to intercept him so far.) But who knew an open dishwasher door could support so much weight? Maybe he could start starring in some Maytag commercials (-:
Your outside playhouse sounds fun, too. I’ve always wanted something like that for our kids, but they’ve had to settle with the fishhouse in the alley during the off-seasons.
Way to go on your posts and esp. with school. I’m so impressed!
