[QUOTE="donna723, post: 477515, member: 1883"] Janet, I know exactly what you mean about the fun of buying toys! It has been many, many years since mine were young enough to play with toys, but then along came the grandson! My first Christmas as a grandmother was awesome! My good friend and I went Christmas shopping ... her kids are grown and gone too and she has no grandchildren yet. The two of us just cut a trail through the Toys R Us and had so much fun shopping for toys for Ethan! We were in there for hours! And now it's his third Christmas and we'll probably cut back some now that I've retired. Last year he got a ton of stuff from me, a lot of toys from Santa, and a truckload of toys from his dad's side of the family. He got so many gifts, he actually got tired of opening presents and had to take a break for a while! He has so many nice toys that he doesn't even play with and they're running out of storage space. This year they have asked that instead of so many toys, we maybe get him books (which he loves), little kids videos that he watches all the time or clothes. I see their point but it takes a lot of the fun out of it for grandma! [/QUOTE]
