First gift from the in-laws arrived today. Game with 36 choking-sized plastic pieces. STRIKE ONE!
(Dear in-laws: Please don't get stuff for our kids EVER.)
Boy, am I glad we decided to slice the wrapping paper open for pre-approval, this year.
LOL. Do we have the same in-laws?
ReplyDeleteWe got a beautiful classic doll for our little girl from the in-laws. They: (1) forgot she is 7 months so can't really play with this very heavy doll and (2) requested we make sure she doesn't damage it because it is a collectors item!
REALLY?! For an infant/soon-to-be toddler? Good luck with that! It's either her doll or it isn't, because I can't explain to someone who gets joy from sucking on her foot that her toy is a &!%*$@ collector's item!
Basically it is staying in the box after one staged photo.
Quite possibly of the same species: The Dreaded Deaf-In-The-Ear-Nearest-You In-Laws.
DeleteMine got Bug some Tiffany china (a children's plate/bowl set) when he was born. Um.... what?
There's another whole box to vet. I seriously do wish they'd never buy stuff. Except maybe clothes; they get little blue jeans and cute long-sleeve shirts with moose on them and APPROPRIATE stuff.
Oy vey. Do they just not recall child rearing?
ReplyDelete... no.
