One handed blogging...

Here goes..baby resting on my chest and one hand free.. Let's Blog!

I wanted to share a Christmas present for my son. I am a firm believer that toys don't really need to be gender specific. My son loves trucks, he does. He also enjoys his kitchen and pink stroller. The last time I checked: men cook and push strollers ;-) So, when he showed an interest in a dollhouse, I was excited to come up with something. I wanted to make it modern and a little less cutesy (something I would have done had I a girl).I ended up finding this dollhouse at a second hand store. The woman was closing her store and I ended up buying this for $8! That's a true story there!




I hated the pink roof, so I took some of our house paint and started painting. I also tried to touch up the places where there was marker.


And Voila! Our dollhouse, in which some one taught Huddy to call it a "toyhouse" But whatever. I added some carpet and reupholstered some old dollhouse furniture we had here at home.


I found some cheap little boxes at a craft store and made loft style beds. The beds cost $.70. Add some paint and covers and there you have a nice bed.


Our house even has a helicopter pad on it. Made By Huddy.


A twig ceiling fan.


Little man playing in the kitchen.


Some gardening.


And of course, some crazy haired plan toys dolls.


This "toyhouse" gets a lot of play time at our house. Sure makes a momma proud!
