Craigslist is my Santa.

Thanks to Santa Craig, Noah will be enjoying this (I know it's plastic and all that, but a. the kid climbs on EVERYTHING (and LOVES slides), he needs a designated area that's ok and b. it's second hand):

... for $450 LESS than retail value.

AND DH (the hardest person in the UNIVERSE to buy for) will be recieving a banjo and lessons. He played guitar in high school and has been SO into folk music for the past few years PLUS homeboy needs a hobby that doesn't plug into the wall and/or internet.

GO ME! GO CRAIGSLIST!

I will tell him they're from you and then he'll be confused and I'll laugh and maybe pee my pants a little and then at the end of the day I'll post on here a recap... it'll totally be the best present of the day.

They are these. Glad thinks they're hilarious because she calls Joe Cupcake Boy behind his back from the Great Cupcake Denial of '10.

Awesome!  We got my step-dad a banjo & lessons from CL for Christmas last year and it was a HUGE hit!  Good thinking!

WOULDN'T LET ME EVEN BUY ONE! And we were at Earth Fare- where they have the GOOD cupcakes! Then he blamed my wanting a cupcake on PMS (during the 2ww) which made me even more angry!

... and apparently I still harbor ill feelings about it.

I may or may not be responsible for enabling those feelings...

We have that exact same play set!!  We got it from my brother when his two girls got too big for it right around the time DS turned 1.  It doesn't look nearly as nice anymore because it's all faded, but the price was right.  Noah is going to love it!  Nathan loves his.
