Apparently 3 is the year of big Christmas presents because boy howdy did Trio get quite the haul this year.
Suffice to say he should be busy for the next few months. The favorite gifts of his are his Buzz Lightyear mini ATV from Paw-Paw Billy, the inflatable bouncer from the Vegas and his Leap Frog toys from Auntie K (which include a faux Blackberry that teaches about letters and a little pad that shows how to write letters). Of course there were many other toys such as Toy Story 3 (from us) a stamp art kit (which I am going to try to break out today before I go to work) and Chuck the Talking Dump Truck which took awhile to warm up too but now he loves it as well.
What was cute is that most kids just rip into the wrapping paper and leave it laying around all willy-nilly. He takes it off a few strips at a time and makes sure to hand it to whatever authority figure happens to be standing around. It's adorable and thoughtful of him if you think about it.
Now for the toy purge. We have decided that we are going to go through all the toys that are too young for him and what he hasn't shown an interest in and donate them to Dell Children's Hospital. I'm not sure if they will take it or how it goes but it will make me feel better since I feel that is a wonderful place (being a children's hospital and all that).
Plus we have to gear up because in a little over a month we face Trio's birthday---dum dum dum!!
