I asked this months ago, re baby gifts, and because I'm lame-o, I need to ask again: |
|
another friend recently had a baby girl, and my husband and I need to send them a congratulations gift... I am pretty out of touch when it comes to gifts for babies... I don't want it to be practical, really - they already have a ton of blankets, toys, baby-picture albums, etc. So I was thinking something more of a keepsake kind of gift -- any ideas or websites I might be able to check out? I don't see this couple very often, so I'd really like to be able to buy it online, have it wrapped and sent to them.
Thanks for any advice! :hi: Much appreciated!

2. no, probably not the best idea |
|
thanks, though. Sometimes you find the best gifts through the process of elimination, right?

they really DO grow so quickly that you forget how tiny they started. I wish I had something like this of my kids. We did hand prints in the patio but we don't have the house any more :(

6. Send them a bottle of champagne or a vintage 2007 Port |
|
that they can age until the child is 21 and drink it then.

My daughter used one last year when she had her baby. She loved it. The other thing she is still using with her little guy is a sling.
