My son (now 10) was given a globe of the world for his 1st birthday (you know the one's that spin around) - it is really good quality, so will last his whole life - I loved that his Aunty gave him "the world" - a really thoughtful gift - and now it's really handy for his geography and travels!

I too am very sentimental and want K to have something to look back on. I have started a BOX for him (like a memento box) which has all his baby stuff in - name card from hospital, cord clamp, gift cards that have been given to him etc

I have also just started scrapbooking so plan to do a few 'special' birthday pages for him but I am also going to get a photo book done aswell

My bubs is almost exactly the same age!

I have done up a photobook with BigW online and I LOVE it. It felt like more of a gift for me to reflect on his first year, and I find it really special. It was heaps of fun to do as well.

I am also having DH go out and buy DS something as well- not necessarily anything super special, but something just from his daddy. I will take pictures so both of them can remember it!!

I like the idea of a momento box too.
