They're more expensive, but a lot more quality and the message is way better. :) Plus, they come with books!

We had an unfortunate incident in our old house, where we stored things in cardboard boxes, too, but the basement flooded and I ended up having to throw away some of my old stuffed animals that had been ruined. :( It was very sad. Now we use the plastic bins for everything. I haven't tried buying ahead for Milo; I need to do that next time I go consignment shopping.<br /><br />So fun that Zuzu has some Littlest Pet Shops to play with! I always wanted one of those when I was a kid, but I don't think I ever had one - I think my sister did, though. My go-to toys were Grand Champion horse figurines, Polly Pocket (which apparently have somehow expanded in size about 10x since the early 90s), and paper dolls. Oh, and Barbie. :) Did you play with Barbies? Do you think you'll let Zu play with them? They've definitely changed a lot over the past two decades. I don't know what I would decide if I had a daughter.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10108466149514530396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7269219926960049007.post-5437676767170988102013-05-24T10:31:11.806-04:002013-05-24T10:31:11.806-04:00sometimes you can find the big rubbermaids on sale...sometimes you can find the big rubbermaids on sale at walmart--it really is easy and i feel so much more organized when i can just go out to the garage and pull out whatever size i need next (or whatever season). i'd had things in cardboard boxes but those attract spiders and don't hold up to weather so well Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16193589124708203445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7269219926960049007.post-35349486928207891722013-05-24T09:59:50.131-04:002013-05-24T09:59:50.131-04:00You have been busy!

I think that would be an easy way to feel more organized.erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04087894658713504760noreply@blogger.com
