Chelsea Kaplan’s Musings About Life... After Birth

Toystory

Posted by Chelsea on March 06, 2007

Ask any parent and they’ll all tell you the same thing: no matter how many fancy toys you buy your kids, they’ll always prefer some totally generic household item. My son, for example, is obsessed with boxes. Not what’s in the box, but the box itself. To him, the Fed Ex guy is Santa Claus.

For Momtourage member Jamie, her son found his preferred form of entertainment in her bathroom cabinet:

She says he can play with them for hours -  in the box, out of the box, line them up, stack them up, dump them out…..really, the possibilities are endless. She thinks this will make the perfect form of blackmail for his teenage years.

I think she should be proud he’s in touch with his feminine (protection) side.

I can sympathize…Jake cost me $220 to get the toilet fixed after he thought they would be fun to throw into the the toilet and then flush it…

    • Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day® All Purpose CleanerMrs. Meyer’s Clean Day® All Purpose Cleaner
      I don't understand gals who claim to loooove cleaning. That said, I do get a certain joy from using Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day® All Purpose Cleaner to care for my home. You can't lose with this stuff...it is hard-working & earth-friendly, and will leave your abode smelling like a day spa instead of a chemical spill. Try Lemon Verbena in the kitchen and Basil in the bathroom. At only $7.99 a bottle, you can afford to pick up both!
    • True BloodTrue Blood
      Um, does this even need a caption? Doubtful, but let me just say that this is the hottest hour on television. Vampires are seriously sexy (especially Eric), and on this show you get to see a lot of them--if you get what I mean. Put the kids to bed and flip the channel to HBO on Sundays at 9 p.m. to taste the fun that is True Blood.
    • Valentino Bow Thong SandalsValentino Bow Thong Sandals
      So comfy and feminine, I know I'd wear them all summer. But dang, that much money for jellies? Possibly worth the splurge. $275, nordstrom.com
    • New Balance Kids’ Sneakers in wide sizesNew Balance Kids’ Sneakers in wide sizes
      My boys have wide feet, which means finding cute shoes for them is tough. These, however, rock. Prices vary, visit nbwebexpress.com to purchase.
    • Zoya “Laurie” Nail PolishZoya “Laurie” Nail Polish
      This sheer pink polish is, without question, the PERFECT nude pink. Plus, the polish is free of formaldehyde, toluene, camphor and dibutyl phthalate (read: yucky crap that isn't really safe for prego gals). $6, enailsupply.com.
