the great toy experiment

In an effort to have fewer McCheap toys at my house, we are experimenting with an idea I am stealing shamelessly from a mom at yoga. Every time Miranda does not order a Happy Meal, she gets a dollar.

So far, she is intrigued. And I am ashamed to say that in less than a week's time, she has $4. (only two of those were McDonalds dollars, at least). She wants a Kinder Garden Baby, a toy with a dubious fun quotient IMO. And it costs $20, so she will have to stick to this idea for a while...

We are 3/4 of our way to a pride of lions.

And I am finally making the new kitchen curtains.
