Hi there, family and friends! Wackadoo! In case we haven’t met (shoutout to my fellow Huskies and Ivy Academy families!!), I’m AmyVictoria, Gabriel’s mum, and it’s just so lovely to meet you! Gabriel is the greatest gift I’ve ever been given, and I’m so grateful to be able to share my lovely and sweet boy with so many wonderful people who are all shaping the person he is now and the person he will be in the future.
I appreciate you checking out Gabriel’s registry, and I hope that you are able to celebrate with us at Millie’s Playland on December 8- it’s a VERY fun, CLEAN, SAFE toddler play place that we have been to many times over the years. I’m sure you have some questions about the party and I’m going to try to give a bit of details real quick!
••There will be food. Real food. I know it’s going to be dinner time and I’m not going to make anyone have to go home and cook a meal or hit up a drive thru after or before the party!
••It’s looking like it’s going to be a pizza, pasta, & salad vibe with plenty of fruit, vegetables, & other healthy stuff.
••The theme is Bluey, and yes, there’s a registry here, but neither of us are registry sticklers and any gift is appreciated by both of us, so please don’t feel obligated or pressured to make purchases off this list.
••I know we have friends and family who are incredibly talented and I am a very sentimental person, so a handmade gift is definitely something that would be treasured and it doesn’t have to be related to Bluey.
••Gabriel wears size 3T in almost every brand still, & he is an 8 or 8.5 in shoes. He has a high arch.
••Aside from Bluey, Gabriel likes:••
•stars (the shape)
•bunnies/rabbits
•Ms. Rachel (she’s my hero)
•counting/numbers
•school buses
•educational toys (he really does- he loves practicing the alphabet, counting, learning new colors and words, etc)
•farms/barns
•the rainbow
•music- I really want to put him into piano lessons or drum lessons and dance classes.
••HE LOVES SINGING, DANCING, AND PLAYING ANY MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS HE CAN GET HIS HANDS ON.
••creating art (I have learned the hard way that “washable” crayons and paint are washable, but they still stain carpet and clothing. thanks a lot, Crayola!)
••velvet - yes, the fabric/textile.
•animals
•doing grown up stuff (ex: helping mum cook, vacuum, fold laundry, organize and clean the house, etc)
Honestly, Gabriel is a pretty easy kid to please when it comes to toys and gifts and playtime. He isn’t very picky about colors or anything else.
***** The greatest gift that anyone can give to someone is their time. I have always known that to be true, and I am honored for the opportunity to spend time with everyone who is reading this. We are always excited about play dates & visits with friends and family, so please don’t think that we are expecting anything in exchange for your presence at the party. I am a single mom. Times are tough. Children are expensive. Everything is expensive now! Coffee is $4 at McDonald’s! What?! Celebrating a birthday is about fun and spending time with people you choose to spend time with who are excited about your existence- not about material possessions. As my friend Katy once said- “presence is more important than presents”. I agree.
••This is a nut-free party and if there’s any other allergens I need to know about, please don’t hesitate to call me or text me!
