Babito got tons of cool stuff for his birthday, including a full wardrobe of clothes from Old Navy, Nordstrom, and Hurley and a bunch of new books to read before bed. We’ve been needing to expand his reading materials, as he’s always choosing either an Elmo or Thomas the Train book to read every night. He knows them both by heart.
He also got a boatload of new toys, which means Mommy and Daddy will either have to (a) clear out some of his new toys; or (b) add a wing to Babito’s playroom.
Here’s some of the cool toys he received at his party. I’m grateful for how generous our family and friends are, I’m just dreading Babito getting invitations to the birthdays of the 19 kids we had at his party. Mommy and Daddy are gonna be broke.
John Deere Farm Set:
Babito loves cars, trucks, and tractors. It’s a very high quality set.
Disney Digital Picture Frame:
We now own three digital picture frames, and I haven’t loaded pictures on any of them. Guess I need to get busy. I’ll definitely do Babito’s first. Very nice gift.
Wooden Food:
At first glance I thought ‘Hey, that’s a GIRL’S gift, but Babito loves these things. It comes with a cutting board and a wooden knife. The various pieces of the food are attached with velcro, which can be cut by Babito with the knife.
Waterwheel Play Table:
A few weeks ago we were at my cousin’s house and Babito played with this thing for an hour, so they decided to get him one of his own. It’s fun for him to pour water into the tower until it tips over and spills into the table. He did it over and over and over again and laughed every time. You can also use this table as a sand table.
Black & Decker Workbenches:
Papa and Nana gave him these workbenches last week and he loves them. The table on the left has both a table saw and a drill press that both make realistic sounds and move like tools.
Golf Clubs!!!:
Babito’s godfather/uncle is an avid golfer and couldn’t wait to get him his first set of golf clubs. The clubs are high quality and the set includes two woods, an iron, and a putter. He plans to take Babito to a driving range soon to start teaching him the game of golf. Then maybe Babito can give his Daddy some lessons too.
Elefun Game:
Babito’s 3-year old cousin has this game and apparently loves it.
Batman Big Wheel:
Babito’s been riding this cool big wheel throughout the house. It has working lights and makes several sounds. Babito’s favorite, which he now likes to repeat, is “To the batcave!”
Thomas the Train Table and Set:
Mommy and Daddy got him this Thomas table and set a few months ago and gave it to him early. He loves this thing and runs to it every morning and every day when we get home. He got several new trains and buildings for it for his birthday too. I hope he plays with it for several years so we can recoup some of our investment! These things cost a small fortune.

How old is he? That is a lot of stuff for one little boy. My son usually puts some of the gifts away in a spare closet until “later” so my grandson has something new every month. I thought that was a very good idea and wondered why I didn’t do it when my kids were little.

Sensibly Sassy: They’re very realistic. It won’t be that much of a change when he switches over to real tools some day. And can you believe a two-year old got real golf clubs for his birthday!?! Too cool.
Karen: He’s two, and you’re right, he got a ton of stuff. Good idea on putting some away….maybe we’ll do that at Christmas. Thanks!

Wow! He got some great toys! My niece will be one in December and my husband and I are discussing what we should get her. Children’s toys are great!
