~Good morning! So much going on here this week! So far we’ve ticked off preschool sign-up, grcoery shopping, a 90% of the M2M stuff on my list, voting, lots of playing outside and a day off school! The kids (well L) has half-days the rest of the week and then we have conferences and even more M2M stuff (it’s never ending).  I am hoping to get rid of a lot of my “big” stuff (strollers, play kitchen etc.) at the Mom2Mom sale, so I am really excited about that.

~Subscription box wise I should be getting the Rachel Zoe Box of Style, SprezzaBox, Yogi Surprise, White Willow Box and a handful of others.  I am super excited to get my first White Willow Box!

~I found ChocoTreasure eggs yesterday!  At Target of all places.  I wasn’t even looking and boom, there they were.  They are on sale for $1 each and are super cute.  I have absolutely no idea why these are okay and Kinder Eggs aren’t, but whatever?  Maybe because the plastic egg is so much larger in these than in Kinder Eggs?  But anyway, I was super excited to find them.  I also came across Star Wars and Marvel Avengers “Milk Chocolate & Surprise”.  They were $1 as well, but they are NOT like ChocoTreasure or Kinder Eggs.  The toy is not in the chocolate.  It’s just in a little plastic container in the box – totally separate from the chocolate egg that is wrapped in foil.  I was totally tricked because I thought the toy would be in the egg.  Nope!

~Has anyone started thinking about Easter Baskets yet this year?  I think our bunny is going to go the practical route with swim trunks, new rain boots for W, new flip-flops for L and that sort of thing, but I do still want to do a few small fun things.  Any ideas?

That’s about it from here! What do you have planned for the weekend?

    We always go bathing suits, sunglasses, flipflops, a hat and a Pez Dispenser and chocolate cross in the basket. Then hide eggs with either chocolate coins, REAL coins, and one each $1 and $5 bills. 🙂

    Oh…so excited about the Choco Eggs. I still can’t believe that Kinder eggs are actually banned here. I mean, are the children in other countries so much smarter that they realize they aren’t supposed to swallow the toys inside the chocolate? Or is it just that the other countries’ governments don’t care that kids are choking all the time? (Just being facetious of course!).

          LOL! It’s okay. I didn’t tick anyone off. I just ticked things off my list.

          I did get the slot I wanted. Well, sort. I couldn’t get what I really wanted because they don’t really offer it!!

    I ordered my boys some movies and some Usborne books for their baskets. I need to get some fun things to go in there too. I’m thinking maybe Disney autograph books or something like that for our trip.
