Friday November 11 (day 134/365)

This past week we had a toy and clothing swap at Phoebe's daycare.  During the first part of the week, people could drop off old things they wanted to get rid of.  Then, later in the week anyone could go through the pile of stuff and take home new treasures.  We ditched a couple of big bags of old baby stuff and I had promised not to bring anything home.  But, as a member of the PTA, I had to help clean up after the swap (all the leftover toys and clothes get donated to the center).  As we were packing stuff up, I came across the perfect toy for Phoebe  - a baby remote control!  We brought it home, cleaned it up and gave it to Phoebe.  She was pretty thrilled - although she was pretty sure there was some catch - we wouldn't just hand her a remote control ... would we?  I am not sure she is completely fooled, after all real remotes don't have googly eyes and Elmo on them, but she is pretty excited to finally have her very own remote.
