Wrong. I can't help it. I've waited so long for a LO and now here she is. I don't care that she won't remember it. There will be photos she can look at.
What we've gotten her so far:
Laugh & Learn Music Table (From Santa)
Laugh & Learn Kitchen
Sesame Street Silly Remote
Vtech Cell phone
2nd lovey
Bath Toy
3 jammies
2 outfits
Fisher Price Stack and Surprise Musical Croc
Plus her stocking...
To my credit, I've spent less that $120 on everything. I'm such a sucker.

My DD really likes the Sesame Street Remote!
I think a big part of the reason we aren't going over-board is because I know her grandparents will spoil her rotten. And her birthday is three days later.
It doesn't sound like you've gotten her too much, plus you clearly shopped around and got some good deals.
I'm envious you've come up with what to give her. Our family doesn't seem that big but when I start thinking about all the grandparents (4 sets since DH and I both have divorced parents) and aunts and uncles, I feel like most of the really good age-appropriate stuff has already been "claimed" by someone else!
Since DS is only going to be 4 months at Christmas I promised DH the same thing. But I havent been able to keep that promise. I went out on Black Friday and have bought him the
FP Laugh and Learn Music Table
FP Dunk N Cheer Basketball Hoop
FP Luv U Zoo Jumperoo
some 6M clothes
a couple DVDs.
and Im not even done yet. I told DH that this is all stuff that we would have ended up buying anyway so why not buy it now when I can get an awesome deals on it all and just give it to him for Christmas. I figured it out and with all the sales and coupons I basically paid for the Jumperoo (if bought at full price) and got the rest for "free".
