With C's birthday around the corner, I am struggling to come up with toys that we don't have one similar to already. I would get her a walk and ride, but we have G's and she plays with that one. She doesn't care that it is a race car so a pink or lavender one isn't going to be different to her. I went to TRU yesterday with their Little Tikes BOGO deal, but we had most of what they had in stock (though not necessarily that brand). I welcome ideas. I don't think we have an abundance of toys, but when I start looking it is a challenge! I plan to get her a stroller of some sort for Christmas thinking she might be more into dolls by then.
Also, for those with 2 did LO1 have issues on the big day? How did you deal with jealousy/toy stealing?

We are kind of thinking of different things for G since she has an abundance of regular toys. Our ideas: outdoor toys (sand/water table, slides, swing, pool, things to dig in the dirt, etc), toy organizers, bath toys or different toys from Etsy.
Etsy has some great learning, numbers, counting, sorting toys. They have some good ideas if you want to make her something (alot of them seem fairly easy).
