Birthday Gifts


We try to limit the amount of birthday parties that we attend to just those of very close friends. Also, I've been trying to make, instead of buy, birthday gifts....much more personal and meaningful in my opinion...especially when a kid is having a giant party and already receiving 15-30 gifts anyway.

Andres will be 2 and we are joining him to celebrate his birthday tomorrow. Here is the toddler scale messenger that Maya and I made him...cost about $4.50 in materials and about 2 hours of my time (with Maya's help...without her help it probably would have been closer to 45 min!)
