It's so nice of Elise to send you those great gifts. And I am insanely jealous of your toy library. Boy, I wish we had one too - it would be awesome to try out different toys.Natalie PlanetSmartyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03531558038661679151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5565698982694193037.post-54718075140546442642010-02-15T20:38:57.002-06:002010-02-15T20:38:57.002-06:00I love the video!

And I ...I love the video! Your son is too cute. <br /><br />And I thought the pictures weren't boring at all. Actually, something you wrote a while back about respecting our children and letting them learn without constant photography has really stuck with me. I've put the camera away more and more when my M is working. I'll still pull it out, but I'm trying to pull it out less. I really respect that you don't just always take photos and try to be sensitive to your M.Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11360194582653685073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5565698982694193037.post-90016871402332906312010-02-15T18:06:44.625-06:002010-02-15T18:06:44.625-06:00I am LAUGHING at the serenade you're getting i...I am LAUGHING at the serenade you're getting in that video!! M is so cute and funny!!<br /><br />Your pics weren't boring AT ALL! And I totally hear you about them needing our attention more than we need the pics. I usually snap a shot (with J's permission) just as we're starting the activity and then I set the camera aside so we can focus. :)<br /><br />All of your activities - the plants, the "Valentine Guys", and the ponytail/jar are my faves! Oh and thanks for the link back, too! :)<br /><br />Lucky you to have a toy lending library, too! I can't recall which part of MN you're from, but the Mahtomedi library has (or at least it did when I was going to school) a lending program (aside from books that is!). :)Counting Coconutshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09417165680507471874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5565698982694193037.post-64727654730982013962010-02-15T09:11:24.702-06:002010-02-15T09:11:24.702-06:00woah that was a busy week... i LOVE your valentine...woah that was a busy week... i LOVE your valentines day ideas and hope to try some of these activites with my sonNadiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13775336866699302239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5565698982694193037.post-77056916753472039082010-02-14T22:52:38.057-06:002010-02-14T22:52:38.057-06:00Nicole!!

I think when I look back at my blog I am going to want to see how my daughter looked as she was engaged in the activity more than the activity itself. But that's great that you are giving him his space. I have wondered if my daughter thinks I am paparazzi sometimes :). I love the rubber band idea and the button snake. And the tissue paper sensory tub (lol). Thank you so much for mentioning my blog and saying the nice things you did :). I'm jealous about the toy lending library. I've heard some libraries have storytelling props that you can check out but ours doesn't. I was thinking of doing a prop swap on my blog one day.
