If anyone lives in the Middletown, NY area, I just returned from Toys r us and they were stocking the shelves with the new Elmo. I've been looking for a few weeks and couldn't find him anywhere so this was a relief. I always said that when I had kids I'd never get caught up in a holiday toy craze. Never say never! 



You're right about that. I'm one of those weird people that happens to like winter, in fact I'd move to Maine if I could
