Reese's Christmas List

While strolling the aisles at Target today I realized that my little boy will be enjoying his very first Christmas at almost 9 months old very soon! Looking at all the toys was a bit overwhelming because we want our son to enjoy the awesomeness of opening presents (mainly toys) but knowing that we have:

1.) Very limited funds

2.) Very limited storage/space

3.) Developmental milestones that we want to hit and
not overstimulate by choosing toys that are beyond his developmental abilities at the moment.

Here are a few things that Reese (as we think) would like:

This is called the "Elmo Knows My Name" phone. When you plug it into the computer you can match your child's name to the phone and Elmo and friends will personally say your child's name and leave voicemails for them periodically. Elmo knows over 15,000 names and Reese is one of them! I think Reese would love to hear Elmo say his name!


Price: $14.99 at Target








The is "Tubby Tug Fishing Boat Bath Toy". I saw this and thought that it was pretty darn cute. Reese will be sitting up in the bathtub soon and this would be a cute toy for him to play with. Of course, any other bath toys would be fun and welcomed, but Momma thinks the tug boat is adorable!


Price: $18.39 at Target







Next runner up is the "V-Tech Baby Laptop". This is so Reese and so his daddy too! We showed this to Reese at the store and his face just lit up. Anything with lights and sounds (and really anything technological altogether) is A Okay in Reese's book!

Price: $15.99 at Target













Anything "Toy Story" or Buzz Lightyear. Reese seems to be intrigued by Buzz, his voice and all of his features. An original Buzz in the box like in the movie would be a great collectible to put on the shelf.

Price: $14.99-99.99








"Presenting the further adventures of everybody's favorite superhero, the man who is faster than lightening, stronger than steel, smarter than a speeding bullet...it's Super Grover!" Whenever Super Grover comes on the television Reese starts giggling. In fact, that was the first time we heard him really giggle around 3 weeks old watching Grover sneeze! Any Sesame Street plush toys or hand puppets would be nice. He likes Grover, Elmo, Oscar, Cookie Monster, Big Bird, etc.
