Re: Christmas toys and stress joys

[Guest guest]

For Christmas Hannah (age 7) got a Potty Training Elmo, she loves Elmo and

we're working on Potty training and in the clearance area of Toys R Us I found a

Mcs play set. Think like a doll house but it's a Mcs Restaurant.

Mcs is a wormhole into her reality. She kept trying to lick the box! She

also got a leap frog book, PowerTouch book and Learning Through Music

cassette - her highly desireable toy that she gets to play with after she

delivers

the goods on the potty.

Oh, on the stress thing, I was freaking out in late summer because I missed a

cycle and thinking I might be pregnant but it turns out I'm going through

menopause about 15 years early. I think I would have rather been pregnant

frankly.

Careful a!

I was 8 months into menopause, at age 41, when I got pregnant for Seth. LOL

Hi All,

I have been trying to read but not much time to sit at the computer. After

getting through my Christmas Day cooking for my 20+ crowd with the kids running

around, yikes, I am wipped. Zeb spent most of his day in his room with his new

movies. He was quite happy. He has been sleeping with a small clock for most

of the year so we bought him a clock radio. He wasn't impressed. Zeb gets the

same gifts year after year, many gift certificates from his favorite

restaurants, movie tickets and video rental cards, DVD's, tapes and more beanie

babies.

We did get him a portable DVD player that he hasn't taken taken out of the

wrapper yet. I am planning to take an hour ride to visit my grandmother so he

will try it out then. I hope he likes it. I did get a few other things so he

would have gifts under the tree but it was a waste of money. I bought a very

large aircraft carrier with the planes etc. The planes are still in the box and

the carrier is now home to a few beanies. Whatever makes him happy is ok with

me. We are enjoying the break form school and hibernating from the cold.
