Birthday presents

Samiantha101

I know this has been mentiones in the past, but now that the birthdays are just around the corner, it's actually on my radar now.

What's everybody getting their LOs? I got Anja this rocking horse/pillow thing, and I still need to order her "big" present. I'm going to get her a jewerly box, and each following birthday, I am hoping to buy her a piece of jewelry. I'm having difficulty finding a quality one that isn't too grown up though.

What's everybody else doing?

We got our son a subscription to Citrus Lane this way he will get a couple toys every month for the year and they will grow with him. Hopefully they will be new and interesting things that I would have never thought of. If any one is interested I have a code for half off your first box.

So far I only got him a couple shirts. We plan on getting him a Radio flyer scoot 2 pedal. DS already has tons of toys so he doesn't need a ton more lol instead of spoiling him with gifts we are going all out for his party. The awesome thing is with all my coupons and sale deals I found we spent 80 for everything....it's about 350 to 400 dollars worth of stuff.

I have no idea, what to get DS!

I pulled together a "wishlist" on amazon, mostly books, and Disney videos, and puzzles, but I think I might get him the tiny swing and slide set. He went in the swing for the first time last weekend and loved it!

But we don't have a tree that we can hang a swing from and we aren't planning to spend a lot more time in our current hours, so I don't want to get a swing set.

But still haven't officially decided yet...probably should discuss it with DH...DS loves all things that aren't toys like bowls and spoons, and "trash" (empty water bottles, and boxes, etc)  so he will probably be happy with almost anything.

She's getting a chair (like a PBK one but different) DS has one and she already climbs into it - which he is not happy about!  Probably an outside chair too (they had little ones at TRU last year)

My mom is getting her some clothes and a bike helmet.

We already have lots of things from DS - like ride on toys, Duplos, train sets, play kitchen, pool...  Right now she really loves pushing around his big trucks and trains.

We got DS the PBK anywhere chair and plan on getting him Mega Bloks. I was going to get the radio flyer 4in1 trikes but my sister offered me her hand me down kettler tri.
We also spent a lot of money recently on getting bikes for H and I as well as a baby seat, tow hitch for car, bike rack etc etc so that we can do stuff outdoors this summer as a family. We figured its our Mother's Day, Father's Day, anni gift, and DS birthday to spend money where we can do activities together.

Maybe look for an antique one?  I have one that was my grandmothers and it's really nice - good size, timeless, simple but pretty (solid wood with inlayed painted flowers)

We are making DD a ball pit. She has so many toys that we decided to get her just one big gift. I can't wait to see how it turns out. But I have like 1500 balls to put in it. My parents bought her a chair that looks like an owl from Target it will match her room perfectly.

Keep in mind we have a ton of stuff from when DS was 1. I did not get rid of anything. So she already has a lot of the typical 1 year old toys- water table, cozy coupe, laugh and learn house, blocks, etc.So I focused more on girl toys that DS did not have.

With that being said we got her from us the Little people princess palace with the extra princess set:

Probably just some clothes. We're such party poopers. Even his birthday invites said best wishes only. I know MIL is just giving a cheque for DS education plan. My parents got something that "needs assembling" so I hope it's nothing huge. But if no one else brings a gift I'd be happy.

She's getting a Stella doll.  They were all the rage on the Nov 10 board at this age, so I got her one.  I really want to get her a PBK chair, but I don't think DH will go for it because DS doesn't use his enough.

She's getting a water table from my parents and a bunch of beach toys (b/c we're going to the beach with them).  From my IL's I'm going to ask to get a little tricycle or wagon for her and I'm sure my MIL will get clothes which she won't wear b/c they will all be incredibly ugly.  From us I think a PBK anywhere chair but the price is driving me nuts! She has lots of toys and just needs summer things now.

He's getting a PBK chair from MIL, a season pass to the zoo from FIL and a play set /swing set for the backyard from us and my parents. 

Ive also asked for a water table and a sandbox!

I honestly have no idea what we're getting her. We already have so many toys and clothes from DD1 that DH doesn't want to get her anything. I want to get her at least one thing, but it's hard knowing that our family will also be getting her gifts. We really don't need more stuff...
