I'm Currently Feeling: | Bethanie got too much because she had her birthday on the 19th and then loads more on christmas day, but like you.. I tried to completely seperate the 2 occasions and she probably got more spoilt then she would have done if her birthday was in June because I was trying to make them so different lol!!
I know you won't take my advice lol, but try not to buy too much and put some money away for when shes older. I have regretted so many purchases as things just don't get used - bear in mind, not having our own place does cause part of this problem, but still.
I can't remember what we got for xmas/bday but in general she got:
Books
Leapfrog caterpillar: Walker: http://www.mothercare.com/gp/product/B000JF9MV4/sr=1-6/qid=1213822365/ref=sr_1_6/202-3196648-8302202?ie=UTF8&mcb=core
Dressing up stuff
Stacking cups
Bath toys
Baby born doll (from 12months one)
Rocking caterpillar
Loads more that I can't remember! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Tilly - She probably will have quite a bit all in all but I think the main reason for that will be because I'm a bargain hunter!
I have her:
carebears story thing
fisher price hoover
doll house play set thing
pooh walking toy
Selling for £90 bought on sales/bargains for £45 so I'm well pleased!
I think she'll get a couple more bits (smaller) as I get £10 free Amazon vouchers a month & just now wanting a pram, sketch thing and family prezzies! But I'll be looking out for the piano coming up as a bargain somewhere! |
