Birthday Ideas

In case you were wondering, both my kids would love cowboy boots for their birthdays. Mia is in a size 13 and Lennon is wearing about a 10.

Mia has a list a mile long, but a few of the items listed are:

-colorful duct tape for making duct tape wallets

-Colonial dress for herself and her American Girl doll/dolls

-Stationary

-little fairies for her collection

-American Girl stuff for any of her dolls, but she wants to start collecting the stuff that goes to the actual dolls, so Samantha, Rebecca and Elizabeth. Clothes for the best friends would do just as well; Nellie and Felicity.

-The Chronicles of Narnia series

-Scattergories

Both kids would also love a renewal of our science museum membership. We haven't been in ages and they are aching to go back.

I can't think of anything else for Lennon at the moment. He doesn't really play with toys. He mostly likes to play what he calls "imaginaries." He likes to help me in the kitchen and he LOVES any kind of machine. He recently has become very interested in pipes and sewage systems. We got some books from the library and he is really into them. OH! I just thought of something. He would love one of those models of the human body that you can find at places like The Lakeshore Learning Store that you can take apart and put back together. They have one that is table top size and he thinks it's the coolest.

I'll keep thinking.
