Christmas Lists in 2012

Apparently, in this house lava lamps are a hot item.

Each of the kids wants one for Christmas.

Oldest wants either an iphone 4 or ipad mini (see previous post) and a blue lava lamp and maybe some clothes for her American Girl doll.

Next one wants an ipod touch with camera on top, red lava lamp, and some lego sets.

Number three wants this plush stump with little plush animals heads poking out we found down at Compass Rose one day in downtown Olympia and a green lava lamp.

And crazy pants dictated her list to me the other day:
*shiny new bicycle
*pet dinosaur  (when I asked what we would do if Ollie barked at it her response- in a duh tone of voice was- "Mooommmm, it'll be in my room!" picture that duh tone of voice with a what-am-I-going-to-do-with-you head shake)
*a shiny new boy room- with a bunk bed so her buddy Henry could sleep over and with a room in her room for her pet dinosaur
*and an orange lava lamp.

At least the lists weren't miles long.

My list for them is a cleaned out garage (not a scrap of crap stored in there) all tricked out with our porch furniture, an air hockey table, Foosball, ping pong, and darts.  Maybe even a TV with the Wii or drums.  Like their buddy's dad's "man cave" they all call it.

How heavenly would that be to have a sheltered place for them to go and be rowdy and get some energy out?!

We'll see if those lists change.

And I'm so up in the air on those darn i-everythings!
