I agree with ctmorgan! A music class is a great gift. Cricket Magazine also comes out with a nice baby magazine that can be kept for years for later book reading. My 9 month old son loves his babybug book series. Personally, I don't want any more toys, so I am making him a couple soft, sewn gifts such as a teepee, cloth memory game, and stuffed animal.

I wrote 'i love you' in different languages on post-its. I then put them up in one room (the bathroom) and when he opened the door, he was shocked. It filled up the entire space (even the shower). Great sweet surprise.

I like the idea of using green, but agree that a neutral color would be nice with a real punch of accent with the windows. A gray would be lovely with a really solid mossy type green. Check out the window treatment options at IKEA. They have some really great cheap solutions to shades and windows.
