Get something that will be a keepsake, like a special photo frame.

My daughter has requested we all write a letter to the baby to be opened on his 18 th birthday. We can include funny stories, memories of how we heard about his arrival .. photos,hopes for the future etc.

When my daughter turned one, we bought her a tricycle.
