Drop and Roar

For Little E's birthday, many of you already know, we wanted to get her the Drop and Roar Dinosaur. I called every Wal-Mart, Target, Toys 'r Us, Babies 'r Us in the greater Greenville area and also in the Ft. Worth area (thinking Mimi & Pop could bring it) and it was not there. Couldn't order it anywhere online. I was so bummed! We ended up getting her the Swirlin' Gumball Surprise. Same concept, much smaller. Reminder, Little E's birthday was less than 4 weeks ago. Last week we were at play group and I was telling my sob story about how I didn't get what I wanted and one girl said she saw the Dinosaur 2 weeks ago at Toys 'r Us. WHAT! And sure enough, there it was sitting on a shelf calling my name! So Little E now has a Drop and Roar Dinosaur. Sad thing, she doesn't LOVE it like I wanted her to, but she still has it and will play with it on occasion. The lady checking me out at the store said she bought it for her son for Christmas. I asked how old he was, expecting it to be about Little E's age, and she said he is 3! So this toy will last for years to come with Little E and also years down the road with other children.
Little E really likes to feed the dinosaur the roll-a-rounds! Too funny!

I think the world was conspiring against you during January and early February. Thank goodness it stopped and you could buy your sweet girl that crazy dino!
