Post Christmas Toy Syndrome

We thought we were drowning in toys after Christmas, so we decided to do a little clean out of the kids room. We pulled all the toys out and placed them in one place, so we could decide what to keep, trash, and donate (clean house style). It is amazing how toys seem to multiply once they are all in one place. This toy mountain took longer than expected, but the kids got acquainted with some old 'friends' and we were able to get all the christmas joy into some order. We are truly blessed to have this issue... So we are also teaching the kids the principles of donation, charity, and sharing. We will send the old toys in good condition to charity on Saturday.

Langston cleaning service

Langston loves to copy. As mommy and daddy have been cleaning during this time off, Langston was paying close attention. He woke up this morning and got Saraia's toy vacuum. He has been pretend vacuuming for the past hour all through the house! It would be great if their was a real vacuum made for his size!!!
