Please Buy Local
With the economy as it is, times are tough for everyone. This is especially true for small, local businesses. One business local to Charlottesville is Nature's Child. I hope to encourage as many people as possible to shop with them for children's gifts. They have a fantastic website and free shipping in the Charlottesville Area. This store has very good prices and top quality products. It is owned and run by moms too, so they are always able to give great advice too! Another wonderful local store with great values (of both kinds) is Blue Ridge Eco Shop. They have products for healthy living for adults and children.
Ezra's Christmas Wishes
Before Ezra was born our friends Fran and Rochelle gave us Angel Dear blankies. We have Ducky and Froggy. He started sleeping with them pretty early, and now it appears to be his lovey of choice. The only thing is, they get dirty very quickly, so Ezra is hoping that he will get one or two other animals to add to his collection for Christmas
.
Ezra has started putting things together to see how they look. He loves to examine anything he can pick up. I think a nice set of blocks, like one of the several sets Haba offers, would be something he will play with for years. We love the Haba brand because they are very careful about the materials they use, and the colors are fantastic. Their toys emphasize wood and cloth rather than plastic and flashing lights. The Nature's Child in Charlottesville http://www.thenatureschild.com/ sells some Haba things and ships for FREE in Charlottesville.
This interactive book by Haba is adorable. I think they have this one, or one very similar, at Nature's Child.

Head Shots for the Christmas Elf Gig
On second thought, maybe we should skip the last one. They might have already filled the part of the drunken elf.
