As Mariah's first birthday was drawing near I thought "what could I get her that would be really, really cool?" It's a little too early for her first bike. I didn't want to get her a Barbie (I want her to be old enough to make that decision on her own). She has tons of clothes. She doesn't eat anything so I couldn't get her any restaurant gift certificates or a bag of Doritos. The necessities like diapers, formula, wet wipes, and Desitin were out because I'd have to be a truly terrible parent to get my kids things that they actually need for their birthday of all days. So, instead, I bought her this:

Happy Birthday baby girl!
