<p>Before Christmas I received a package from Elena from <a href="http://laughfriendly.com/">Laugh Friendly</a>. Laugh Friendly is the company that publishes the Nana Star series of books. Well, they also have stuffed characters as well. The package I received was of <a href="http://laughfriendly.com/our-books.html#toys">The Oh-So-Very Pretty Nana Star Doll</a> and the <a href="http://laughfriendly.com/our-books.html#toys">Moonman Lovey</a>. The package had a note just letting me know that these toys were for me and no review or anything was needed. I contacted Elena from Laugh Friendly to let her know that we would be wrapping up these gifts and giving them to Eva for Christmas. We knew the grandparents were going to spoil Eva so we decided to do one big gift (<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000F5Z2V2?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=flatwaterbook-20&#038;linkCode=xm2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creativeASIN=B000F5Z2V2">The Laugh and Learn: Musical Learning Chair</a>) and also give Eva these two toys.

<p>Eva loves her Nana Star and Moonman toys. She has Moonman in her bed and loves to hug him and she takes Nana Star all around the house. Eva is not quite old enough to understand the Nana Star stories and so she is not role playing with the toys yet but she does enjoy them anyway.

<p>Here&#8217;s a tip for you frugal dads out there, buy the Halloween costume after Halloween for the next Halloween. It only works the 1st or second years but at least you can save a little those ones. We picked up this Winnie The Pooh costume for Eva last November for $4.00 from the Disney Store. It&#8217;ll be the 1st costume for each of the kids on their 1st Halloween.
<p>Eva had a very nice Halloween night, she met our neighbors and made a bunch of new friends including twins next door who are about 5 or 6 months older than she. That is okay she can keep up and Allison can have grown up time with our neighbor. We kept it small, we went to about 6 houses, people we knew and who wanted to see Eva in her outfit. Eva was a trooper she was so well behaved and even started to enjoy trying to pick the candy. Mommy and Daddy were happy with her picks, they were tasty.</p>
