my kids toys

as i child i really liked strawberry shortcake and rainbow brite...now as an adult i am passing that on to my children. all the toys that i enjoyed as a youth are coming back full circle. audrey got a strawberry shortcake doll for christmas, reese got a care bear for his birthday, we got my little ponies etc. etc. ..but do you ever find yourself more excited than your child to "play" with his/her toys? for instance...audrey received a polly pockets set for her birthday and i think that i
enjoy it more than she does.

i am looking on ebay for more outfits and more sets to buy. and i always look at walmart/target to see if any of that product has gone on sale. is that sad? no, this is sad...when you actually take the time and effort to learn a cheesy song that polly and her rock band sing on their website. i could recite it for you, i really could. (it is kinda catchy) but i digress...is it sad or is it taking an interest in your child's playtime?
now in that same vein, Michael has become obsessed with the geo trax train set that the kids got for christmas from the huffs. he is always wanting to set it up and he has bought more additions . he has their website in his favorites. and just yesterday he told me he was daydreaming about a new way to set the tracks up. and i know that he also checks the stores for new parts or sets of the geo trax line.

michael refused to be pictured with the track set up. he said he will pose with the trax when he can buy another set. i think he wants the city trax next.
i guess we need other hobbies....
sadie got a new toy too that she seemed happy about. she was looking at the dangley things and smiling. it was really cute! she doesnt look to thrilled in this picture but she really did like it!
