We have toys galore from when Gage and Dane were babies, we really don't need anymore.

So, we have been trying to rack our brains on what would be a good gift. We figure some plastic cooking spoons, a few plastic bowls and then a knot tie blanket! We have made one for our other boys, we can do Bishop's early! We gave the others for Christmas in 09 but I think he can get his a bit early

I'm excited. I love making them. I just need to find the perfect print. Gage's is Diego both sides (he chose the print), Dane's is a bright blue that matches his print side which is green, blue and monkeys.

I'm finally glad we figured out what we're going to do!

They're usually 2 pieces of fleece that instead of being sewn together they're tied together You cut strips and tie them together.

Glad you figured out what you're gonna do, it sounds perfect! Share pics when you're done!

Dane won't let go of his still. He carries it everywhere and if he can't, he asks when he can get home to his blankie.

That is a great idea. I know what you mean about having too many toys. I told my sister to get Miranda diapers, cause we sure need those.
