One year old? When did that happen?
December 4th, 2007
Avery’s is going to be one year old in less than 2 weeks!! Can you believe it? Here are some links to wishlists and registries for stuff for Avery, both needs and wants. I’m putting things we re going to buy for him on there too, like a new carseat and some baby-proofing stuff, so just look at the fun stuff. I’ll make a sidebar soon, so it doesn’t go away as we make more posts.
As a general rule, we prefer quality over quantity, especially given all the recent lead paint and GHB toys fiascos. We are also trying to avoid (for as long as possible) branded characters (think elmo, dora, spongebob) for as long as possible. Since we don’t have a TV this is easy now, but looking at the one year old clothes its like we crossed some invisible line where “baby soft, cute, ” and “brandable, hello disney characters” are divided. I think the best toys are those that rely on imagination and creativity and have endless possibilities. PVC-free. That said, kids are expensive!
Ave is a size 12-18 months (he’s long). Err on the side of bigger, he’ll always grow in.
Here are some places we have registries/wishlists at so far (I’ll update as I have time):
