My DH thinks we (my daughters and I), especially me, are obsessed. Yesterday he noticed Bitty's new beach set all set up in her room. He just shook his head.

One day he was talking with a guy he works with about a job they were working on. They were disagreeing about how a certain aspect should be done. This guy has two young daughters 3 and 5, He said, he said to him "Look we better do it this way, and if you don't agree with me I'm going to send a complimentary copy of the AG catalog to your house for your wife" He really didn't say that he was just putting me on, but that's how he feels about it. I said "Well at least its something that they actually play with."

So many other things my DD's receive as gifts from family and friends just end up on the bottom of the toy box.
