So. We have an early Christmas present in the house. 
An Advent gift, actually. It's really
cute.
And the calendar part required a lot of assembly. As did some of the "prizes." A lot of assembly. It's Playmobil, which is very good quality stuff. But it generally comes with a lot of pieces. This particular set? Came with 96 pieces. 96.
And after we got it all set up, a neighbor called to ask if we'd like a nativity playset. Hmmm. Sure! Why not? What's a few more little plastic figures? After all, it's the holidays!
Of course, this is why I am in the situation I'm in. I am my own worst enemy!
Someone, just shoot me!
Or better yet, SEND CHOCOLATE!
I have noticed that the older they get, the smaller and more numerous the pieces are. That is a cute little set.

ohhh... that IS cute. I dread the "toys with many parts" phase, which I know is coming soon. I'm going to be wearing your boots soon, Marie!

How cute! I *so* understand the little pieces thing. *Melody shakes her head*

I am tempted to have a give-away! Yes, it's cute. But OY! It is my son's brand new set, so I won't give it away yet... ;-)
Chris, Google Playmobil nativity or Christmas and you'll see some cool stuff! Looks like they come out with a new set each year.

We did the Lego one one year, until I got way behind in assembling! I get the chocolate ones now! ;)
