Seriously? Rabbits? Good Will? Guess How Many? Over run?

Seriously? Guess how many stuffed animals we have? 104!!! And 12 of them are from Christmas! (And shhh don't tell the girls that I gave a whole garbage bag to Goodwill right before Christmas!) It feels like they are multiplying like rabbits and we are now over run. Guess it's time for another Goodwill run or better yet let's have a contest! Here's how it works: take a pictures of all the stuffed animals in your house, post it on your blog and leave a comment on mine with the total number. Whoever wins, I will send them the bag of stuffed animals that I would have given to Goodwill. Want to?

And just for some trivial information we have 9 Build-A-Bears, 12 Care Bears, and 23 Webkinz! Maybe we should buy stock in one of those companies:)




PS - I realize it's a little unfair since I have four girls but keep in mind that I am a thrower awayer and that if I had kept ALL the stuffed animals we've ever owned since Kassie was born, we would probably have over 500! So it's all good.

Love it! I hate stuffed animals, though. My kids get one drawer of their dresser for them. If they don't fit, trash. I am so mean. And we have never owned a carebear. Weird.

You're a nice Mom! I wasn't allowed to have stuffed animals. I think I had 1 bunny.

That's awesome! I don't think we have more than 100, but I'll post it on my blog in the next few days.

I like that you are a thrower awayer. I am to and happy to be so.

I'm afraid that if the money you spent on stuffed animals were applied to a grand piano you'd have one by now - sort of like cigarettes. :-) (This from a zero tolerance for stuffed animals person.) Actually, some of them are pretty cute.

Mom, you had some tolerance. There is a picture of us on the bunk bed surrounded by dolls and stuffed animals:) Too bad a grand piano takes more room than stuffed animals but I don't feel too bad because I have not spent any of MY money on them - just other people:)
