[In the past, I have deleted items as we "outgrew" them, but I've decided to leave things as they are and just adjust the font to the
* Water toys of any kind - especially the cheap ones that you can find at any of the "dollar" stores
* Between the Lions - DVDs and CDs
* Hydrangeas - OK, not even close to being kid-related, but I love them and don't want to live without them. Just sayin'.
* Honda Odyssey van - don't know why I've never listed it. LOVE it! It is simply the best thing we have done, aside from the three cutie-pies that are our own. :)
*Aunties and Uncles - we have all sorts by blood and by "adoption" and they are all such a blessing to us and even more importantly, to our kids. We love them ALL just slightly less than we love our kids. ;)
* Fun music - you have to find it. Our kids love to dance and sing along and we have eclectic taste in music, so it's interesting to see what they love or hate. Try all kinds of music - pop, classical, rock, country, kid's, praise, showtunes, jazz. It is so amazing to see how they respond.
*BOOKS! Yeah! Everyone enjoys reading. And we have really enjoyed finding books on CD so the kiddos can read along while listening. It really helps them continuing learning language and phonics skills.
* Legos. The kids love them and so do the adults, except when you step on them. And when they don't get put away and we find little Lego pieces all over the house.
*Barbies. Yes. Even Clark has a boy Barbie and it really is good for role-playing activities, although he tends to go on his own and play with cars or Legos or Lincoln Logs. But again....those little teeny, tiny pieces can really drive you batty when they aren't in their storage bins.
*Movies we love at the moment: Rio. Despicable Me 2. Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2. The Lorax. Frozen.
*Almost any craft kit - loom, rubber band bracelets, paints, drawing sets, chalk for outside.

*Craigslist - for buying and selling stuff this one can't be beat since there are no fees to pay. Be sure to use common sense when setting up a VERY public place to meet your buyers/sellers.
