Joy Dish Soap: $1.42

Raft:  $54.95

Wine Barrel Waterfall: $199 (or more)

Grandparents who put the Joy Dish Soap into the raft and the wine barrel waterfall to make their backyard into a grand kids wonderland:  Priceless

You can't buy this kind of laughs.

I finally found it!  The recalled Elmo toy I now affectionately call "Lead Paint Elmo."  After searching untold hours for this toy for days on end, Emma came out of her bedroom, where she had apparently stashed it (I wonder if she has other contraband too), and had it IN HER MOUTH! 

Thanks for the poisonous toys, Mattel!

Don't worry, I threw him in the trash, along with Lead Paint Elmo Sprinkler, and Tessa entire collection of Killer Magnet Polly Pockets.  I have no idea, now that the boxes are gone, how to distinguish which tiny, tiny parts are part of the recalled Polly Pocket collections.  I figure we will just throw ALL the Polly Pockets away and start fresh.

Anybody else out there eyeing all your kids toys suspiciously now… wondering what else will be recalled?
