Toy Shopping

I can't quite remember the last time I went toy shopping; but it must have been at least 20 years ago. We got to relive our childhood a little today when we decided to add to Miki's already crowded collection of toys. I hate to say it, but I think it's more because I'm getting bored of playing with the same, old toys with her day in, day out.

So like all first-time parents, we went a little, just a little, overboard and got her a baby piano with keys that light up, a singing/talking dog, a collection of sponge balls, and a cute duckie toy on wheels to motivate her to move. She's a little lazy when it comes to tummy time, so hopefully this will help. She loves banging on the piano..but she's not taking to the dog as much as I thought she would.

We're headed to the park tomorrow to watch little ducklings in the pond and loud geese terrorizing visitors. Miki loves watching the trees sway, birds flutter, and the wind on her face; so much so we've resorted, on some days, to sitting on the doorstep to calm her.

I guess no matter how raved about toys are, nature's still the ultimate playground.
