While pregnant I thought about what I would like to do for the baby's birthday and Christmas, I came from a background where money was tight and these days we got something special. So I remember presents from these days because it was such a special gift. I have seen an idea for a baby's birthday and Christmas which I like to do myself, I think partner is with me because we don't want to go mental on these days, I had people at work that just blew it and how much is actually getting used. A Christmas I had a stocking, a main present and few bits and that was enough, for my birthday it was a main present and few bits. It's up to other parents to decide for their child and I am not criticising people I am just asking for opinions. The way I found was this
Something you want
Something you need
Something to wear
Something to read

I love this quote! I like to try go by this at Christmas for my Stepdaughters. They have too many toys. So they get one toy they want, an outfit, book or a series they have been wanting, some body care, deodorant or hair care. Need is sometimes shoes or coats.
