Ben and Sam got a bunch of adorable clothes for Christmas. They both got dressed up in some new outfits for church this morning and looked so good, it would be a shame not to share with everyone. Several blogs that I follow have mentioned/asked for support regarding the new Consumer Products Safety Improvement Act. Among other things, it mandates third party lead testing on all toys made in the United States. That means any one that makes toys, clothing, accessories etc for children under 12 years old, will have to pay literally thousands of dollars to have each product tested. When this goes into effect on February 10th, thousands of people will be put out of business including those who sell their goods on Etsy. Since our family bought several Etsy products for Christmas this year, I felt compelled to help in the fight. Please go to the link on the right for more information and to see how you can help.

On a happier note, Ben got a belated Christmas present from gram and pap today. Most of you know about Bens obsession with, "listening to Bob the tomato on the radio in mommys car" or, "watching Bob the tomato on the tv." For those not sure, I'm referring to Veggie Tales (a group of animated vegetables that tell biblical stories to kids). Gram made Ben a Veggie Tales pillow case. We immediately had to put it on his pillow and he is currently curled up on his pillow taking his nap. He loves it!
