I bought them through Zulily and was debating about the gears toy, but I'm too cheap to justify the shipping for just 1 toy. I was planning on just getting a book. Oh well, it's her first Christmas afterall :) I hope it gets here on time, they normally take forever to ship! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-428662 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 23:49:17 +0000 Mrs. Pen 428662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaG: aww soo cute!</p> <p>@Crumbs: we stopped in at a local toy store today that is set up like a childs play room and Cobi LOVED the gears game and played with it for half an hour! so cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-428661 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 23:45:08 +0000 MamaG 428661@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>PBK Anywhere chair, Kitchen (from G-ma and G-pa).

Probably won't be using it until next summer but he'll only be 6 months this Christmas anyway so he won't remember and I'm sure the grandparents will be overloading us with more toys. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-428215 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 16:58:44 +0000 lavender 428215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just ordered LO a 36 piece foam play mat and am ornament, she's 8 mths. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-428209 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 16:52:00 +0000 SugarplumsMom 428209@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I ended up caving and getting her a pair of Quercetti toys. I like the look of their daisy sorter and the Fisher-Price one is either sold-out or overpriced (where I am) right now. The other one is more for DH and BIL than it is for her right now. I figure they'll have fun playing with it during Christmas. </p> [attach=1448/12/mefbeo.317x381.0242_high_0.jpg] [attach=1448/12/mefbeq.317x381.2341_high_0m.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-426399 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 23:19:56 +0000 Mrs. Bee 426399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>a dollhouse for charlie and olive to share. and i think it will be hard for me to resist some educational toys for charlie. olive is happy to play with charlie's toys. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-426393 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 23:16:20 +0000 MaisyMay 426393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Umm, this is going to sound awful, but nothing. She is going to be born 2 or 3 days before Christmas, so we figure everything is her Christmas gift. We did buy 2 first Christmas ornaments and a Chris's dress for her though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-426248 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 21:51:51 +0000 Mrs. Pen 426248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got "him" a maya ring sling hahaha :) </p> <p>we don't have a whole lot of extra money so we might not get him anything.

Ugh...but we had been picking things up here and there since September so we didn't realize we got so much. Lots of books, some pajamas, some toys, sippy cups, etc </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-425508 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 15:55:24 +0000 prettylizy 425508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got her the PBK Anywhere Chair and we scored a wicked good deal on an Imaginarium train table and train set. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-425490 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 15:50:13 +0000 lovehoneybee 425490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bebefly: Ha I don't know what they'd be classified as but I know one of the things DH is giving me is a new diaper bag. (Well, used, from ebay). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-425478 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 15:44:13 +0000 sera_87 425478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LittleBebe will be just over 4 months &amp; is getting a board book, exosaucer &amp; an outfit. (something to read/play/wear). I did order him a baby's first Christmas ornament though...but that's more of a gift for mom. ;)</p> <p>By the way - what do you classify gifts for mom that technically are for baby? I'm thinking stuff like a carrier or a travel changing mat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-425473 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 15:41:58 +0000 Mrs.B 425473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got DS bunch of fun things (he is 4) but Santa is bringing him a bike and a bunch of beach/sand toys since we are clebrating in FL this year. I got DD (10 weeks) some developmental toys and a few fun things she will be able to play with before she is 1. I also got her a walk behind doll stroller by Fisher Price because at her first birthday she will likely already be walking and I have been eyeing it for awhile and finally have a reason to buy one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-425467 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 15:39:40 +0000 Running Elley 425467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO will be almost 3 months and we're getting him a jelly cat stuffed animal and a Christmas ornament.

She's 16 months and still doesn't understand presents yet, but when she's older we'll do 7 cheaper gifts and one nice one. </p> <p>This year we got her 1. bath books, 2. chanukah book, 3. chanukah puzzle, 4. something to hang her artwork, 5. hair bows, 6. bubbles, 7. toy food, and 8. I can never remember the last one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-425290 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 14:25:25 +0000 lovehoneybee 425290@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Orvis18: We got E a doorway jumper and already set it up--I was desperate to have my hands free to clean, and E doesn't like being worn around the house--only outside on walks or at the store or something. He LOVES it! </p> [attach=1866/12/mebfbq.600x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-425270 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 14:18:41 +0000 loveisstrange 425270@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got C an activity table and a couple small toys and stocking stuffers, thats about it. I know my parents bought her a Cabbage Patch doll, since that's what I got for my first Christmas also. :)</p> <p>ETA: She'll be 8 months old. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-425266 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 14:18:03 +0000 bushelandapeck 425266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS will be 4.5 months at Christmas and, so far I've bought him a personalized stocking first x-mas ornament and a jumparoo. I was going to wait on the jumparoo but he was ready to use it now and I'm so glad we did. I will probably get him a couple of toys and a few books. I know our families are going to buy him way more than he needs so I don't want to go overboard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-425261 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 14:17:05 +0000 BananaPancakes 425261@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got him the Melissa and Doug giraffe. It was on sale on Amazon the other day and I've been eyeing it for a while. He'll be 8 months, but already has a thing for giraffes and stuffed toys, so I think he'll totally get a kick out of it. Other than that, it'll just be a couple of stocking stuffers - bath toys and an alphabet magnet set. I bought him a new blabla a while ago, that I'm going to stick it in his stocking as well.</p> <p>[attach=1330/12/mebewh.300x300.41acuofCjWL._SL500_AA300_.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-425257 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 14:14:59 +0000 mrsjazz 425257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our family is buying LO some toys &amp; books (I sent around a list of possible items since everyone kept asking me what to get her) and we bought her 3 dolls.

It was a Cyber Monday steal from Target. He'll be 18 months at Christmas, though we're not sure we want to set it up until we move and have more room -- he'll be close to 2 then. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-lo-for-christmas#post-425233 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 14:06:10 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 425233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD will be 11 months at Christmas and I got her a personalized chair from Pottery Barn Kids. I didn't want to spend that much on it, but I loved the way it looked and I know she'll be able to use it for a few years. </p>
