DORAAAAA

My Daughter is obsessed with Dora, and by obsessed I mean she will wake up and the first thing out of her mouth is DORAAAA, she even calls for Dora in her sleep. Some may find that to be disturbing but I think it is kind of cute.

Two weeks ago she called the nurse at her Doctor's office Dora, which she did kind of look like her. The nurse looked at me funny and said "She just called me Dora." I wanted to laugh but said "Take it as a compliment, she LOVES Dora!"

So if you walk into my house you'll notice she has the Dora couch, toy box, dolls, PJ's, sippy cups, bathing suit, tapes, guitar, blocks, calendar, luggage, blankets, beach towel, beach bag... oh my now I am a little disturbed ha,ha.

But hey, I guess her obession could be worse, it could be of those stupid Yo Gabba Gabba characters that make me cringe at the site of them. At least Dora and her monkey buddy Boots- like who doesn't have a monkey buddy named Boots, and her talking map and backpack are enteratining and she is learning a 2nd language, the other day she said Holla and Ariba! So everytime she calls out for Dora instead of MaMa I just have to laugh.

Christmas Tree Shop

I am IN LOVE with the Christmas Tree Shop. Not sure why but I am. I can spend hours in there and buy a number of things that I don't even really need! I went today with my sister's bridal party and they had EVERYTHING we needed. All in one spot, for a great price and we walked away happy and feeling that we accomplished alot is such a short period of time.

I usually hit the one off in Cape Cod when we go to our yearly summer spot, but the one in Orange and Danbury CT are just as good. Yes, the dollar stores and deal stores are great too but isn't there something about the Christmas Tree Shop- which doesn't just carry things for the holidays-that makes you want to keep going back!

So for all of you who have never been, please go, and for all your shopaholics you must go and get there $1 gardnering kits and $1.69 wrapping paper for about any occasion! Plus they had these 79 cent Dora sandwich bags- yes Dora on them- and they are just too cute for my daughter's snacks or even my husband's lunches (I wonder what his buddies would think.)  Happy Shopping!
