I knew exactly what my 7 year old wanted this Christmas because he started talking about his wish list in the Summer.  Obsessed with Skylanders isn't even the way to describe it.  He got Skylanders Giants last Christmas but didn't set it up till January and was immediately hooked.  My life has been a perpetual Skylanders love fest.  A constant "Mom did you know Skylanders Swap Force is coming out?" Lightcore this, lightcore that.  After he beat the game, he found Minecraft but only played on his cousin's account.  We planned on getting him his own account but it became a Minecraft love fest too but decided he could wait and it could be one of the cool gifts for the holidays.

We headed to Best Buy because it is the promised land - everything shiny, new and cool will be found there.  It is the ultimate gift center.  The best tech gifts, check.  Gift cards, check.  What I ultimately go for is the selection I can look at in person but I love staff that know the products and are super helpful.  Plus the displays are awesome.

You think he knows he's getting Skylanders Swap Force for Christmas?


I was wandering around drooling over everything when I saw nirvana.  The Samsung section.  We are a Samsung family all the way.

We really should get a tablet...

I have the Galaxy S3 and my husband has the S2 - it's only right I should be dreaming the S4 shows up under our tree!
