Birthday/Christmas
I hadn't really thought about how close Gwen's birthday is to Christmas before. She was always too young that we didn't really have a celebration for her. But this year she is going to get some fun things both for her birthday and Christmas. I feel like they are practically the same thing. I know she is still little enough not to notice but I sure will. She will barely have time to play with her new toys when she's bombarded with more toys. I really should come up with a different solution for it like celebrating her birthday in the middle of summer instead. In which case do I start doing that in six months from now. Pretty crazy. But I guess that's what happens with Christmas babies.

Just don't wrap her birthday presents in Christmas wrapping paper. I hated that when I was a kid...and I still hate it! Ben and I understand all about being Christmas babies. He doesn't care too much, but I wish my birthday were at a different time of year. Oh, well. :)
Yeah, I've thought about that with Ky too. Poor kid.
Give her presents for her birthday, but then confiscate them when she isn't looking. Say robber/monster. Allow her to go through appropriate grieving period. Re-wrap same presents and give again at Christmas.
Child happy again, problem solved.
