Happy Birthday, Take One...

No, Madeline hasn't actually turned 2 yet. Not for another three weeks. But the package from Grandma and Grandpa VanCleave arrived in the mail, and she was awfully interested in her "Happy Birthday Box." So we Skyped with Grandma and Grandpa on Friday (after the haircut--it was a big day!), and let her open her presents from them a bit early. She got lots of great stuff: new clothes (all of her 2T pants are too short for her now), some purses--one even had real coins in it, some Sesame Street DVDs, a Little People picnic set...but the biggest hit was the present Grandma had gotten for free in the mail: STICKERS!! Figures. (She has rediscovered the other presents by now.)

my kids are usually more interested in the box stuff comes in than the thing itself. why do we buy them toys at all?!
