Thank you for the suggestions for Kiko’s first birthday party! Some of the recommendations were mer mag blog and the sweetest occasions, and both websites are great! I am really starting to get excited about this shindig 🙂
Kiko has a very strange a collection of toys. Regular baby girls have rattles, stuffed animals and other such things, right? Kiko does have proper baby toys that were given to her from family and friends, but she never uses them. In her little toy box that she frequents daily, she has an old spoon, wallet, ketchup bottle, and some plastic wrappers… Strangely she shows more interest in those than the regular baby toys. I have some colorful and cute baby toys that are supposed to “stimulate the baby’s brain and encourage its growth” as the label states, but she gets bored with them and prefers to chew on house hold items like empty coke bottles.
I had a plan to hand make her toys. I could have done stuffed animals and what not, but I’m pretty sure, at this point, the time would be wasted because she is oddly attached to an old Starbucks spoon at the moment. I wonder when a kid start enjoying regular toys… I remember my favorite toy of all time was a Jenny doll (fake version of Barbie doll). I really had to work to get that thing from my parents(they didn’t give out toys so easily…). Sadly, the night I got Jenny, I trimmed her hair without my mother knowing. I thought her hair would grow back. Surprisingly, it did not.
