Bag o' Goodies

OK, I've been meaning to do this post since last weekend so here we go...

When we did our registering/shopping last week, we also got the items for the bag we get to send our boy. I mentioned earlier the ziploc shrink bags for the freezer were are friends ... you will see why ...

Time to play, can you guess what that is....

Item #1 is....



...an Elephant security blanket! We actually did a test run and took him out and he came back to life :)






Item #2 is...



....a monkey! He's got velcro hands so hopefully he can be hung on his crib.




Then we got a picture book that we have since filled with pics of us and the grandparents.




Outfit #1 ... "Fly Guy" :)




Outfit #2



Teething Keys




Everything we sent...




Actually fit into the gallon bag! We hope to get it sent off next week.




I also had to share my Valentine Day's gift from Amber ... well, from our boy :) One of my food vices is peanut butter and chocolate ... she made a double peanut butter cookie with Reese Cups on top ... How sweet is that!?!? AND TASTY! WE LOVE YOU SON AND WILL SEE YOU SOON!

First off I just have to say way to plug Ziploc!! :) (I work for the company that makes them) However, you then put all of the vacuum sealed ZIPLOC bags into a HEFTY bag! What is that about?! Tss tss tsss...

BUT... VERY cute stuff!!! And my husband would LOVE that cookie cake!

Julie told me only "two things"...I said, "what about a toy or outfit"..and she said, "no, only a lovey and picture album"...Man, my kid will be so jealous of yours :) ha. Oh, well, our blanket was big, so it took up some room :) It all looks so cute...kristi
