It's been sitting in the closet since. We'll give him that. And a toothbrush and toothpaste - time to start brushing his teeth! :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3/page/2#post-1341759 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 11:44:33 +0000 mrs. wagon 1341759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: haha yes!! I need to pull that out of the living room soon before something bad happens to it (I'm picturing big spill)! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1341756 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 11:43:34 +0000 Adira 1341756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm potentially getting him an elephant rocker from @mrs. wagon: if we ever get a chance to meetup, haha. But other than that, I think I'll do what @Mrs. Blue: is doing and buy him some books! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1341737 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 11:37:08 +0000 Mrs. Blue 1341737@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I might just get them each some books. I never feel like they have enough of those, and I think they have too many toys as is. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1341727 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 11:34:35 +0000 mrs. wagon 1341727@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They both got huge parties! In our culture we throw big celebrations for the first birthday. They both got huge gifts from the grandparents so we didn't feel the need to get them a toy or anything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1341715 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 11:32:25 +0000 rattles 1341715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Other than her party, she got a Rockabye ladybug rocker, a Kidkraft kitchen and a kid's music cd for our upcoming road trip. For other ideas, she got a little suitcase with light-up wheels from one set of grandparents and a Step2 whisper ride buggy from the other. She also loved her music toys and cars from aunts/uncles. In less exciting (for her) news, she got her convertible carseat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1341374 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 10:20:53 +0000 travelgirl1 1341374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A shape sorter, a couple of books (Tails was the biggest hit), a couple of Jellycat toys..... We had a family photo shoot too and party. I was worried that since our family is all overseas that she wouldn't get anything but actually she got a ton! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1341146 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 09:34:28 +0000 dagret 1341146@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>L's birthday party is Saturday and I bought him a Vtech car carrier thing when it was on lightning deals around the holidays. And today's Kid Woot is a portable collapsable high chair and I bought that b/c it was a great price and I think we'll use it a lot this summer at the beach. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1341136 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 09:32:11 +0000 immabeetoo 1341136@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A pass to our local kids museum! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1341058 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 08:54:25 +0000 MamaCate 1341058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got a lunchbox (which she needed for daycare anyway), a melissa &amp; doug hammer/ball box, and a book! She got tons of stuff so we didn't feel the need to go all out, and it worked out great. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1341052 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 08:50:48 +0000 Dandelion 1341052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gave DS a Little People barn. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1341047 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 08:46:18 +0000 SeptMomma12 1341047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>PB Kids Anywhere Chair. It was money well spent - he uses it all the time...refuses to drink his milk anywhere else! (And when he's not in it, the cat is!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1341010 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 08:16:07 +0000 loveisstrange 1341010@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got her an activity cube, the B Parum Pum drum set (which she loves and still plays with nearly a year later), and a little armchair.</p> <p>Other people got her wooden blocks and floor mats, which have also been awesome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1341001 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 08:09:41 +0000 Silva 1341001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we'll get her a set of wooden blocks. And a bedroom of her own- thats the big gift (but we might move her sooner than a year, still undecided). I'm so excited about it!</p> <p>ETA: I'm asking family for a membership to the local kids science museum, a parks pass, and a convertible car seat! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1340968 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 07:48:00 +0000 bushelandapeck 1340968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got him a Smart Trike and he loves it. Hopefully he will be able to start peddling it this summer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1340963 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 07:45:22 +0000 hilsy85 1340963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>PBK anywhere chair. He loves it so much-- constantly climbing in and out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1340960 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 07:42:41 +0000 MamaMoose 1340960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>PBK Anywhere Chair. She loves it. As soon as we gave it to her she collected a bunch of her books and climbed in her chair to "read" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1340950 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 07:31:17 +0000 looch 1340950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A bakery cake, to go with our theme. Seriously, I paid $175 for that!</p> <p>We didn't get a specific gift. The whole first year was gift extravaganza. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1340946 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 07:28:53 +0000 yellowbird 1340946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Arden: We got our LO a playtent/ballpit. That would be hard to move! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1340909 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 06:47:42 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1340909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A play kitchen with play food. But I ended up not giving her all of the food. She's 1½ now and I still haven't brought it all out. I'm waiting until she's 2+ or when she knows how to play with them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1340906 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 06:40:50 +0000 hellobeeboston 1340906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We didn't get LO anything because we threw him a huge party! He got too many gifts... We saved some and gave them to him at Xmas per the reco of some bees! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1340905 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 06:38:37 +0000 MrsF 1340905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got her a small plastic red wagon because DH insisted that we had to get her a gift. It really would have been fine for us it not get her anything. She got so many presents from others! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1340903 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 06:23:47 +0000 Smurfette 1340903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think an Anywhere chair. Just getting that and nothing else. She will more then enough toys from every one else. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1340901 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 06:20:52 +0000 petunia354 1340901@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A party? Lol. We didn't get him anything. Although, his birthday is 3 days after Christmas so that played a factor this year since he didn't know/care.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-lo-for-their-first-birthday-3#post-1340881 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 03:40:50 +0000 Purpledaisy 1340881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Her party will be her present.
