I'm so glad you were able to make it over! It was so good to see you!
Regarding the toy, which we didn't get around to opening until after you left... there's good news and bad news about it.
The good news is, the kids LOVE that toy. In fact, Kieran has loved that toy since the time he received it for his 1st birthday, which is the bad news. We already have it. :)
I checked back on your previous post to that keyboard thing you mentioned, and it turns out that we have that one too, which Kieran also got for his first birthday. But look at this this way--you have good taste!
We were able to take it back to a store yesterday though and they allowed a return without a receipt, so we will get her something else in its place.
It's really tough with kid toys because you never have any idea what they already have. I have that problem with Kieran's classmates, who are always having birthday parties. I just pick something out having no idea what they like or whether or not they already own it. So I always attach a gift receipt just in case.
