It's a Very Play-Doh Christmas

This Christmas Ava has a lot to be thankful for. Like the Play-Doh Fun Fridge packed with more than 20 pieces and eight different colors of Play-Doh. She also received a Bitty Baby by the American Girl Collection, which comes with its own diaper bag, diapers and wipes. Just a few other things. Santa gave her three books, a Groovy Girls backpack, a tiger flashlight that growls when you turn it on, a puppet show set, a wooden doll with magnetic dresses, big girl underwear, Mary Poppins, Muppets from Outerspace, Thomas the Train, play horses, Dora the Explorer and Winnie the Pooh Christmas ornaments, tub paint, a sequined purse, wooden blocks with pictures on them, crayons, pens, finger puppets, a Cookie Monster lunch box, candycanes, a bell, and a bunch of other stuff I can't remember right now. Between all the toys and the pies and eggnog, Ava is so overstimulated and jacked up on sugar right now that she's half crazed. She turns from one toy to the next, yelling and hitting things, crying one minute and laughing the next. Next year she may get some Ritalin in her stocking too...
