I spent my evening last night sorting through the toys in the Dynamic Duo's bedrooms. The Batcave is feeling pretty cramped these days, and it's time to bring some order to the chaos.
Going through a toy box is sort of like opening a Pandora's Box. I sorted into toys they've outgrown, toys to rotate out/store, and broken crap. The problem with this system is that each and every toy has pieces that belong to the set that are somewhere in the house. Before I can send the toys off to consignment, pass on to friends, or donate, I have to find all the mothercuttin' pieces!!
A fool's errand.
I have been dealing with this for the last month. When we got all our stuff out of storage we totally doubled the amount of toys, and then had Christmas followed by Adrianna's birthday.

And then, everything I get started (like, tracking down all those pieces to get rid of stuff) the girls instantly undo...
So, I feel your pain. And it's very very painful.
The real purpose of this reply is to try out the new reply/delete buttons that I haven't seen before. I have hated that blogger doesn't allow one to respond directly to a comment. Perhaps they have fixed this? Or have I been too stupid to notice?
