Homemade gifts are just fine.

Fridge Magnets
Books
things to bang on or throw
I would say for a TV aspect of who she enjoys would be Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
blocks
bath toys
outside toys (bucket, shovel type things)

Clothes wise anything goes size- 9-12 months.
Honestly she plays with anything and everything.

We love home made stuff!

Ellie is in 9-12 month clothes and we love pink and purple.

We like headbands and hairbows. Ellie loves anything that makes noise, especially music. She loves big lego blocks, and bath or pool toys. She also loooooooves kitty cats and most of the puppets from the Baby Einstein videos.

Oh! Her nursery and birthday party are Hello Kitty themed.

I love handmade things, they're so special!

- Things which he can chase, things that flash lights, things that make sounds and music
- Anything that uses water, we live in florida and any outdoor water stuff would be great
- He loves Yo Gabba Gabba, and puppets. I can't find any dvds for babies that's only puppets, but he would love that.
-He is in size 12 mo. now, and anything from 12-18 mo. would be good.
- No shoes, please...he has hard to fit feet

I love homemade!

Avery loves Yo Gabba Gabba, puppets, board books, clothes (12 month, but they can be bigger, since obviously she will grow!), blocks, toys that play music or make noise, balls. Lately she also really likes stuffed animals. We are trying to teach her baby signing.

She doesn't wear shoes. She has really sensitive skin so please no scented lotions or washes.

Homemade stuff is super special.

There really isn't anything specific that Miranda goes crazy for, so pretty much anything goes. Books are always useful.
Clothing wise she's in size 12-18 months for tops and 6-12 months for bottoms. We love pink, purple, green and yellow colours.
We could use some pretty bows.

Orion likes music instruments (toy or otherwise) like baby drums, maracas, etc.

Homemade is awesome

Clothing-- he's in size 9 month pants (if soft fabric) jean material can be 12 month sizes. Wears 9-12 month onsies.

He likes toys that he can bang together-- he also is really smart with puzzle things-- those toys with the shapes you push through the holes are a good choice.

Anything with music and lights is great.

-She loves anything she can clang together and things that play music.
-She loves to be outside, so outside toys and hats are great.
-She is an Aveeno baby as everything else irritates her skin.
-She already has a billion books (myself and several family members are teachers) so we are covered on that front!
