Yeah, I don't like most the clothes she wears. Not my style.

I've noticed they use the paci to get her to stop talking when it's inconvenient also. That kid's gonna be dependent on it. The other morning when Cullen went to get MG out of bed, she had two paci's. He took one out of her mouth and she immediately put the other one in. My goddaughter never really took a paci and I'm hoping my kids won't need one. I know it's nice to get the kid quite for a bit but... I'd rather spend a little extra time cuddling them than having a lifetime of dental issues.minmouse wrote:I agree about Katie taping MG when she was upset about the balloons. The poor kid! I kept waiting for Katie to stop filming and pick her up to console her. Or take her out of the store so she didn't have to hear the helium tank. And I thought it was weird to keep sticking the paci in her mouth to get her to stop crying. My kids never used a paci so maybe people do that? She should have given her a hug.
that rug is specifically for outdoor use. We have one similar. Its basically one of those grass mats you use at the beach only made from recycled plastic. Its totally water proof and can be hosed down. We love ours.bffb3 wrote:

Also, isn't putting a rug outside the worst idea ever?
I thought as a former American Girl employee the baby doll was WAY too much for a 1 year old, they're $50 heads held by a stringWhatshesaid_2015 wrote:So, what did everyone think of the birthday party? I thought it was too much, and tacky, if I'm being honest. Sometimes less is more.

I agree with every word of this, from the Bitty Baby, to the party being so freaking cute (although yellow isnt a color i would pick, it completely makes sense and goes with the You Are My Sunshine theme. Its just personally my least favorite color lol) to the fact that i really do like C&K. I am close to their age, live in the same region and totally relate to them (and yes i dressed my daughter the same lol) Cullen can be annoying at times, and i do disagree with some of the things he has said and done in the past, but he is a loving and hands on father that is over the moon about his daughter. Katie is a wonderful mom and she is so grateful for Gaines and it shows.nutbagmcgee wrote:Grandolly got her the Bitty Baby. It isn't a typical AG doll and can be played with right now. Dolly made a comment in another vlog that she had bought Emily and Madeline their first bitty baby and wanted to do so for Gaines as well. I consider it more as a heirloom gift that can be played with, I would rather have that than a silver cup or spoon. My kids all have had BB's before moving up to the full 18" AG dolls and they were just baby dolls to be played with in our house. Very nice, durable, baby dolls.
MG's party was darling. I loved it all. I think Katie and Dolly did an amazing job with everything. First birthdays are huge for us and we celebrate huge, I done think it was over the top huge at all. I did want to smack the little girl who kept getting in front of the camera during presents though. Where were her parents? Do people not parent anymore?
I still like K and C. I don't agree with everything they do and say but I relate to them much more than I do with any other vloggers. I also dress my kids the way they dress Gaines, with big ass bows too! We are about the same age and have a lot in common. I don't agree with the asshattery of Cullen but still like them.

Those parents are also probably the parents that buy siblings gifts on other siblings birthday's "so they dont feel left out".......... What about the birthday kid? Are they not allowed to feel like the center of attention ON THEIR BIRTHDAY? the one day that should be all about that one kid?? Thank makes me even madder...ladymama wrote:At my nephews first birthday party everyone was getting upset with me because I wouldn't let my almost 3 year old help him open the presents. I think it's rude and totally judge parents that let their kids do that! My daughter sits in my lap and we talk about what gifts are being opened. After it's done, she is allowed to ask birthday kid (or parents) if she can look and gently play with new toys.
