want.need.wear.read

It's that time of year again...and I am not nearly as prepared as I have been in years past, but thanks to Amazon, the Christmas shopping is now finished.

Read here or here on our simple gift giving tradition.

So here goes...
Charlie
Want: Magnamoblie Concrete Mixer & AutoMoblox Wooden Cars okay...okay...this is definitely two gifts but the wooden cars were actually bought for our trip to Indiana and Nick refused to let me take anything with removable parts on the plane SO he gets an extra "want." Lucky Boy!
Need: A new Michigan Hat. We get so much sun here, hats are a necessity all year long. As of right now, he only has this IU hat...and a baller can't always be sporting the cream and crimson...true playas need a little maize and blue in their life.
Wear: These "cool shoes." Charlie has shoe issues. He gets stuck on one pair of favorites. Now this is hard when he grows out of said favorite. So for days before the switch, we talk about his cool new shoes. Enabling? Maybe. But it works. 
Read: This Lets Build Magnet Story is really fun for this age, it is like a puzzle and book all in one. Now, he has a little trouble following directions on the one we have, but he learns more vocabulary every time.

Mack-Man
I bought these...more for me than him, but I'm beyond excited to use them!
