Do you give gifts to your child on their first birthday?

I agree with Anne's previous response. My wife and I didn't give a physical gift to our daughter on her first birthday, rather, the party was her gift. Other parents, family members, etc. all gave gifts as a formality, though we never asked them to. Generally, I think the first birthday celebration is more for the parents. It kind of serves as a celebration that you, as parents, have made it a year into parenthood!
