The BEST toy

I think we have all had a few days to enjoy our new Christmas "toys". I am wondering what were your hits and what were your misses?

Cade's big gift that he asked for was the Kinect for his XBOX. Santa came through and brought it to him. He loves it! So it was a HIT for us! Santa also brought him Skylanders. He wasn't overall excited about it when he saw it Christmas Morning but now that he has played it - it was a for sure HIT! I think the only miss for him right now has been the Disneyland Game for the Kinect. It is a little too difficult for him to operate and even for Larry to operate.
Colin didn't really ask for anything this year. He LOVES his Buzz and Woody Dolls that Santa brought. Actually, he LOVES everything that he got for Christmas. However, this Buzz Light Year Space Ranger Space Ship with the blow up wings has been one of his VERY favorite things! He has played in this thing for HOURS! He watches movies in it, eats lunch in it, and he would probably sleep in it if I let him! The very best thing about this spaceship is the PRICE! It was sooooo cheap! Cheap to the tune of $1.99! No kidding! I bought this during the summer from Kmart during one of their toy clearances so I was super excited that he loved it so much.
Notice Dumbo, Buzz, and Woody in the Spaceship! The wings that are as big as Colin! Now of course since we have all these new toys we must make room for them in the toy room! What a disaster! Haha! I looked at that room for about three days before I even attempted to do anything at all in there. Then finally it hit me that I should try to set it up like a classroom. What a genius idea!
This storage unit has been in the toy room forever! It now has two containers full of Imaginext items as well as some bigger Imaginext items on top of it! The other bins contain Wii items, Geotrax items, Thomas Items, Dinosaurs, Cars, and Race Cars!
We just added this storage area in the toy room! I need to add the bins but I am thinking I am going to use clear bins in this one! I thought it would be a great idea to divide the room with the toys we have already! So I used the kitchen and the new art desk to create two different areas in the toy room.
Kitchen Area
Art Area
Still trying to figure out what I want to do over here!
Just because I want to leave you with some cuteness! Here is Colin today in an adorable Bailey Boys outfit.
He wouldn't look at the camera - little stinker!
