1. Something to Read: 10 classic hardcover books to add to her little collection. Taste of Home was selling all ten of these books for $14.99 last month and I snatched them up.
2. Something they Want: If Greta could form sentences a little better, I am sure she would say she desperately wanted a puppy. Alas, she can't and isn't ready for that responsibility anyway. Fortunately, we are pretty sure she is going to love the Prince Lionheart Cow Wheely Bug. I can't wait to see her scootin' around on it.
3. Something they Need: Some may argue that Greta doesn't need Melissa & Doug's 60-piece standard wooden blocks--but the girl is a stacking/building fanatic and I am tired of putting away all of the bowls and hearing the pots and pans come crashing down. Plus, we are certain these blocks will be the kind of toy that we will have forever.
4. The Extra: Crayola has really gone all out in the past couple years and the artist in me gets giddy when Greta wants to color. Getting these mess-free, I repeat--mess free--paint markers and paper were a no-brainer.
5. Something to Wear: This Platinum Purple snowsuit could also fall under the "need" category. She is going to look adorable romping around in the snow for our family snowman building contest this holiday.
Now it is time for the fun part--wrapping!!

Stir crazy popcorn is amazing! My mom has had one of those for years, plus is more healthy than the microwaveable popcorn.
The blocks come with a wooden box to store them in, although I think we'll probably end up getting something larger so it isn't like a puzzle every time we clean up. The good news is Greta is a pro at cleaning up her toys. In fact, I think that is 60% of the fun for her.
Ditto, Janet! Although I do love people watching and those sugary pretzels from the mall--so I try to get out for that part. hahaha.
We are totally doing that system for Brinley too. I LOVE that cow wheely thing. Brinley would FLIP out if she saw that. SO smart. We got her some potty training books! YIIIIIKES. That's my to-do after new years! The blocks are genius too. Do you have a big tub or storage thing for those to go in because there are 60 pieces! Or only pull out 30 at a time or something.
I love online shopping. I don't think I would be able to survive the holidays with out it. I hate crowds. :)
