Lesson learned this week:
When hiding kiddo gifts for a future birthday...
The garage is a great place to start...
but maybe not...
at toddler eye level...
in a bright colored box.*
Since it we were just 10 minutes into our 5PM hour of frustration, so I wasn't going to fight the lego discovery. As it turns out, those legos kept Owen happy all evening long and have been a huge hit over the last several days. At least it was just an "extra" box of duplos that Scott made a total score on at Goodwill a few weeks ago. Only $3!!! Unfortunately, we were hoping to use that box to supplement another full set of Duplos that I have hidden in another corner of the house. Something tells me those may not be the BEST GIFT EVER once summer rolls around. I'm going to have to snag and re-hide this box in a few weeks.
*Okay, so if you're not impressed with that tip, here's a better one: SimpleMom.net My new favorite website. Love it! Love it! Love it!

Oh my goodness, that's so funny! Kids are totally attracted to bright things, crinkly sounds, etc. How fun that he loves them, though! Good find!
How funny! What a good eye Owen has...he can spot fun from a distance! We love Legos too, all four boys. Great gift.
