Bryson received the Matchbox Smokey the Fire Truck for his third birthday. Smokey was an immediate hit- both with Bryson and his 7 year old cousin. Meet Smokey Smokey is a freewheeling friend with movable hoses that spray water mist and expandable ladders and sensors that respond to a child's movements. Smokey is a real working fire truck brought to life. This interactive buddy talks, tells jokes, eats, exercises and sings. Kids will love interacting with their new … [Read more...]
I fell in love with B. toys on a trip to Target a couple years ago. At the time, I was scoping out birthday and Christmas gifts for my almost one year old, Bryson. It's hard to believe he'll turn 3 in December! In the end, I settled on the Busy Zoo, now known as the Zany Zoo. As a mom, it's still one of my favorite toy purchases. There is so much packed into this one cube and it is so sturdy that Bella now pulls up and plays with it. B. toys has an awesome selection of toys and I … [Read more...]
Over the last month, Bella has become much more playful and interactive. She loves to play with her big brother, but she's also content to sit and play alone for short periods of time.

A lot parent's shy away from Moon Dough, because they think it is too messy. Life with a 2 year old and an 8 month old is messy pretty much 24/7 and I guess that I've just … [Read more...]
Sing-a-ma-jigs were everywhere last Christmas. Every time I browsed toys online for Bryson, they popped up in every color. I never ordered one, because I’m just not usually a fan of stuffed animals, even cute singing ones. After receiving one a few weeks ago for the kids, I thought it was cute and that Bryson would probably take right up with it. *ahem* He’s actually scared of it when it talks. Which is weird, because the kid isn’t scared of anything. The longer we have … [Read more...]
