My
daughter is now 7 months old (nearly 8), and we were blessed with lots of baby
toys, clothes and gifts when she was born. We have very
close friends who just welcomed their first child into the world, a baby boy, and they, too, got
lots of gifts off their registry.
The question is, as these two kiddos grow, what do you get them as gifts? They're not kids yet that can tell you what they want to play with. Our little girl has tons of toys already anyway, but as Valentine's Day, Easter, and (before I know it) her birthday come along, family and friends are sure to ask what to get her. Along those lines I will likely ask the same question for our friend's new baby.
In my mind there are only two good options—clothes or books. Clothes they will grow out of and will need more, and a good book you can't outgrow.
