I know I am obsessed about this lead in toys issue. But I found a neat toystore from the Mom Go Green blog I read.
Oompa toys are now dividing up their toys by where they are made. I love it! I may have to investigate this shop for Lily's 1st Christmas and Birthday!
My friend, Amy also gave me a good website as well.
Today I had an impromptu gathering with my friends Cat, Karen and Kimberly. Thanks ladies for meeting me!
We also went to visit David's Mom in the hospital. She is doing okay and we hope she comes home soon!! David's Dad is doing well. He is up on crutches and moving around!
Tomorrow is a playgroup at Cat's house. Should be fun!!
Saturday I may be getting together with my friend Melanie.
Sunday is my outing to Denver with my friend, Christine to see Josh!
Lots going on, but that is a-okay with me :)

Hey there, Jen!
As I've been talking about this toy thing with Chris, I have been saying that most people are ignoring the point that with the second recall, the problem wasn't with the toys being manufactured in China. It was a design flaw that probably came from the US designers: strong magnets in toys as a "feature." So it really isn't as simple as saying you won't buy toys from China.
I also happened across a toy store called Kazoo Toys in Denver that seems to sell good stuff, if you are ever near it! We have a good local educational toy store, and I like to support local businesses.
Amy: You are right! More to think about. I guess it's just really researching the toys you get. I will check out the Denver store. I will always support local when I can! Thanks for the info :)
