I totally agree, it was lovely and they didn’t go over the top in my opinion and bought her stuff she’ll love to play with. Was lovely to watch.I actually think their little first birthday for Ocean was lovely. I really liked that they let Ocean eat a cupcake and get messy, credit where credits due. Families will have bought presents. My baby is born really close to Christmas, it’s not her fault she was born near Christmas so I’m not going to get her any less than I would if she was born any other time of the year.
She has a camera in there to watch her when she’s in another roomI actually think it’s nice now that Ocean has her own playroom. One thing I’ve always said is I want a room for my daughter which is her space to go and be on her own if she wants to and be surrounded by her comforts which essentially they’ve done for Ocean. And I can’t see Helen leaving her unattended in there either but as she will have the baby too atleast Ocean has a space she can playI do agree maybe they should have swapped the dining room and playroom but there was clearly method to her madness
I think that’s a good idea personally, when I’m doing stuff upstairs I carry my daughters monitor so I can see her going into her room and what she’s up toShe has a camera in there to watch her when she’s in another room
Realistically we don’t know know she’s always in the living room. Just because they are when she’s posts doesn’t mean she’s there all day. Especially when Helen goes days without posting anything, there’s nothing to say she isn’t in the play room. She’d get criticised if she spent all day recording ocean in the play room for not “being in the moment” and living through a screenEveryone is entitled to their opinion but I find the whole pile of presents/balloons and then posting pics on the gram extremely tacky and just plain showing off. I hate it at Xmas too with the pile under the tree.
But anyway my main point was they've gone so over the top buying her loads of presents she will barely play with. Come on, she's always in the living room with Helen and Chet sat on their arses watching tele paying no attention to her, and she's not even allowed any toys in there. She went to all that effort to do a nice play room for her yes, but we barely see her in there and her toys will just be shoved in there out the way. They used to plonk her in front of a laptop when she was like 4 months old for god sake
My son had a couple of presents for his first birthday, he didn't need a massive pile of stuff. Now he's 4 yes, he has more but still no where near as much as that pile they had for Ocean!
I'm just gonna wait until Helen gives birth next month and everyone's hating her again when she claims she's lot 14 stone in a day and back being a know-it-all egg head again
Aw I don’t disagree it’s the bare minimum, to be honest I was thinking of last time they bought her a toy and never took it out the box for herPersonally I thought the amount of presents was fine. As everyone else has said it’s her first birthday and at least ocean got presents she can actually use rather than ones that are just for show.
I still don’t like Helen, good on her for being in the background of the stories opening the toys for ocean but I’m not going to praise her for doing the bare minimum that every parent on earth doesit does seem that ocean had a good day though which is nice
I’d forgotten about thatAw I don’t disagree it’s the bare minimum, to be honest I was thinking of last time they bought her a toy and never took it out the box for herdefinite improvement!
Our kids playroom is the conservatory. The heater out there is insane and it keeps me relatively sane that I can shut the door and the house is tidy!I actually think it’s nice now that Ocean has her own playroom.

Yeah you can definitely hear Helen in the background of marnies storyLooks like Marnie and Casey were travelling too, maybe they’ve all met up at Chets parents
