Several friends and family members have recently asked for some birthday gift ideas for Isabelle. (I still can't believe she's going to be a year old next week!) So I've been thinking about a few things Isabelle needs and might like to have, and here's what I've come up with:
1. Car Seat - The thing Isabelle needs MOST is a new car seat...not because she's outgrown her infant carrier (she's only 17 lbs!), but because Lacey's on her way, and she'll need a place to sit too! I'd really like to get Isabelle the Graco MyRide 65 Convertible Car Seat - I love that I can keep her rear-facing (the safest position) for as long as possible, and she'll really be able to use this car seat for a long time. It's pretty darn expensive ($160), so I'm NOT suggesting somebody buy this car seat for her - but Babies "R" Us Gift Cards that we can put towards the purchase of a car seat would be greatly appreciated!
2. Clothes - Isabelle DOES need some clothes to keep her warm this fall/winter! I'd love to get her some long-sleeve dress-and-legging sets (and if you find some, please let me know where you got them so I can get more). Doesn't have to be anything fancy or expensive, just some play clothes that she can have fun in. This fall/winter, she'll probably be wearing 9-12 month sizes, and next spring/summer, she'll probably be in 12-18 month sizes.
3. Toys - Isabelle's such an active baby, and rather than cuddly stuffed animals, she'd much prefer toys that she can be active with, such as Playskool Busy Basics Step Start Walk 'n Ride, LeapFrog Learn and Groove Musical Table, Infantino Colorful Activity Ball, or anything colorful that moves or makes noise, lol! She also loves to take baths, so she'd also love any bath toys!
4. Books - Isabelle likes very sturdy interactive books that she can hold herself (and maybe chew on a little), and if it has buttons or makes noise, all the better!
