Take a wild guess...

...what my exhusband has bought my child for her 4th birthday.

[Leslie]

Stripper boots? *trying to think what mine`d get for a 4 year old girl*

[abooja]

A pellet gun? A brass bed? A pony?

[Gonz]

a pellet gun would be okay. My guess is a pre-paid cell phone to call him when mommy & Uncle Rob are not nice.

[tonksy]

Nope...think noisy.

[abooja]

Drums?!!

[tonksy]

Ding Ding Ding!
It's apparently a pink and purple Barbie drum set. Gee...I can't wait until she opens it :eh:

[Gonz]

Just think how much fun it'll be to have her trumpet go along on her next visit ;)

[tonksy]

I'm thinking air horn.

[Leslie]

next time she goes to visit him, you send her with a ghetto blaster and the new Mini-Pops Cd

[tonksy]

OOOH! I've got it! I'll send her with the Doodlebops CD. It's enough to have you contemplating suicide.

[abooja]

:smoke:

LOL, my older brother used to buy my kids the noisiest damn toys he could find. Now he's got a boy that will be three this summer. Last christmas his wife took me off to the side and pleaded with me, saying she didn't even know him when he bought that stuff for my kids... Too bad.

[BeardofPants]

Har har, reason number #1304 why I refuse to have kids. :lol:

[Gonz]

in some sick twisted masochistic way, those irritating toys are what makes memories...for your kids & about your kids. I'll take a little noise with the knowledge that someday, mine will have some :evilgrin:

[tonksy]

I suppose it's what I get for telling him I bought Marlowe an "Anarchy in the PreK" t-shirt and Malory an "I'm with the band" t-shirt.

[Professur]

He bought it, he keeps it at his place. Simple.

[tonksy]

Yeah...it'll be arriving via USPS today. I may put it in her bedroom upstairs if it does put out alot of noise but really I am not terribly upset about it. Daddy did play drums in marching band and Marlowe already has an incredibly annoying keyboard that she got for her birthday (Rob plays keyboards). I suppose fair is fair.

[Professur]

I'm still ticked that Rob didn't do the Ballad of Linus and Lucy for me.

[tonksy]

You know what? I don't even know where is keyboard is these days. The stand is in the garage....

[Professur]

Toby doesn't have it?

[tonksy]

I try not to go down there, breaks my heart. I bet it's at the practice space.
