the cool Automoblox

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

This must be one cool toy car Clayton got for Christmas from Auntie Velma. The Automoblox was a popular gift idea last Christmas and I heard that they were flying off the shelves, all thanks to the whole list of benefits of the toy car.

no more worries on baby gifts

Saturday, November 10th, 2007

Sometimes I can get quite lost when it comes to shopping for a baby shower or birthday gift. I mean I’m worried that I may end up buying something that is of no use to the parents, or I may end up buying the same gift as someone else. Or is it just me who [...]
