Wonderment closing, so sad

I was zipping through Linden Hills this afternoon and saw to my sorrow that Wonderment, the marvelous store full of wooden toys, is closing. Luckily I stopped because it turns out that the last day is Saturday. I found a pair of lovely wooden horses on wheels, just about the only thing left. I had visions of getting bundles of wooden swords and so forth to save up for Baby's later life! But that is the peril of not joining email lists. I cut that out a while ago, since I found that they clogged up my email. Oh well.

Anyway. I found a great little lamb toy at the Tibet store across the street and bought it to save for Easter. They also stock Steiff, one of two stores I know of in the twin cities. There is a blue Steiff bear that is almost irresistible.  Then I went online and admired the adorable little Easter baskets from Pottery Barn. I am not really ready to buy yet, but they are so so cute! I love the idea of personalizing the lining with baby's name.
