Was she snooping around for them or was it on accident. I agree with Kelly though take them back. If my kids were snooping and found them I'd tell them they don't get those presents that year and they have to take the one's they found to some charity. She's 3 though, I doubt she was being malicious. You could try lying and say they are for someone else and maybe she would forget by Christmas, it's a thought.
She was just snooping around in my room while I was getting Claire down for a nap. I think she was looking for the flashlight we keep by our bed (the gifts were hidden under the bed). I thought she was upstairs watching a show. She came into Claire's room looking like she'd just won the lottery! Knowing Paige I knew she'd never forget about it so I ended up telling her that I had meant for them to be surprises for her but since she found them early she could pick one and the rest have to go back to the store. It would have been a hit; she played with it all day!
I always used to find my Christmas presents as a kid. My mom usually returned them. Now I feel so bad that I was such a snoop since I understand how much effort parents put into it. I hope you don't have too much trouble finding replacements. And yes btw, I have been gluten intolerant for years. My sisters are also, so its a genetic thing I guess.
