Dog Toys

I'm only two weeks late with this one....

So my mom and I assembled the Easter baskets for the boys the night before and Owen and Sammy's looked pretty good. They were chock-full of stuff we knew they would love: Star Wars videos, Spiderman umbrellas, Yo-Yo balls, new kites, etc, in addition to some candy, of course. But William's looked a little sparse. Now, true, he's only 16 months old so what could he possibly want for Easter? I had a board book for him, new socks, a hairbrush, and a bendable rubber bunny toy, but what else could we give him? He's not at the point where we want to give him too much candy, so we filled his plastic eggs with animal crackers instead. Chris, though, in his infinite wisdom stopped at a 24 hour grocery store and found this little lamb...

in the DOG TOY AISLE! It's the cutest thing EVER! I think it was only $4 and it has a great squeaker in it that sounds like a crying lamb! William LOVES it! He just needs to push on it and it cries and he laughs EVERY TIME! Chris also pointed out that because it's a dog toy, it will be more durable than most kids' toys and with all boys at home, "durable" is a word that definitely grabs me! Anyway, he loves his little lambie and we think dog toys for kids might be the wave of the future!
