DS will be 18 months in a few days. I bought him a few wooden pull toys, a toy car and truck, a stuffed fox, wood blocks, a towel and bath mitt set, and clothes. My mom is going to buy him a table and chair set. He has so many toys that light up, sing, and make noise, so I wanted to get him toys where he would have to use his imagination. Here are some links:
We're buying DS a play kitchen; I've suggested books, Duplo blocks, and bath toys to family that have asked what he'd like. He loves looking at pictures, so I'm going to make a photo album with pictures of our immediate and extended family.
LO is 14 mo and he's getting a Cozy Coupe and a play BBQ grill. Those are his main thing. He and DS1 have way too many toys to get anymore, not to mention DS2 would rather play with DS1's toys. So we keep the ones that aren't too small or anything for DS1 in the living room for both the play with. We will get him a book or two (maybe for the stockings if there are some that will fit in that we like) and maybe some other stocking stuffers. That's about it. The boys' presents this year might number-wise seem like there's not much, but they are more expensive I guess. They'll also get some clothes, but we aren't trying to go overboard!
DD will be 19months. We got her a nice wood play kitchen, pots/pans and accessories. I am not sure what family and friends have purchased but we requested little people sets, clothes, books, duplo legos and wood blocks, large magnetic letters/numbers & animals and a doll.
DD just turned 18 months. Her big present is a play kitchen, and my sister is getting her some dishes and play food. She's getting a baby doll and crib from my parents. And Santa is bringing her some cars, some lacing beads, and either an easel or toddler trampoline (husband wants easel, I want trampoline).
I am not getting her a lot of things. I like to keep Christmas simple.
I am going to get some small gifts in a stocking for her. I think she'll enjoy pulling everything out of the stocking. I will also bake some homemade cookies for her.
My parents and in-laws are sending some clothes and toys.
Just finished shopping for DD. I chose mostly practical stuff because I think she'll enjoy opening presents, but we don't need any more toys.

DS is obsessed with the ball pit at his school, so we bought him a pretty cool ball pit and a bunch of BPA and phthalate-free balls. It may not be age appropriate, but man, nothing makes him happier than jumping into a ball pit. We also bought him more Duplos- he loves building (and subsequently smashing) Lego towers. Oh, we also got a cool bathtime basketball goal thing. My mom bought him a play kitchen because he loves watching me cook meals. MIL bought him a ridiculously huge ramp/car toy that will inevitably take up half of his room and likely lead to an ER visit. Well, at least we talked her out of buying him a 4 wheeler to "ride around the apartment."

Between all of us for 2 18 month olds.... play kitchen and accessories, Mr potato head, little people farm, art supplies, books, shopping cart, wood puzzles and I have been on the fence whether they are ready for a real tea set.

So happy to see you here GG! I hope things are going well with you.Green Toys have a nice tea set, and my friend says her LO really likes it. Also, it has pink, and it has some blue, so it would be perfect for Ayden and Syney. It's not very fancy, but it would be nice at this age.

This was our original plan but we didn't really stick to it. We didn't get her a ton of stuff but I only wanted to get her like one or 2 things.
