I usually give a pair of Robeeze as a standard baby gift. Not all new moms know about them and they're awesome, even if they take some time to grow into.
Also, Ginger, I've gotten compliments on giving batteries in my gift bags--seriously, all the baby gear and toys seem to need a lot of different sizes and usually they're not to hand when you need them. I also stick in a D, C, 9v, AA and AAAs. One dad declared it the most useful gift they got.
I have a bad feeling that the events I told y'all about yesterday have altered not a thing.

Jesus Christ - sorry about your friend's self-destructiveness, DJ.
Me too. She's smart and beautiful, responsible with a decent job (for now). I just kinda don't get it.
Ginger - the bucket variety gift is great - the kind with a couple of burp cloths, onesies (first time mom? yeah. will totally underestimate the number of onesies that she will not want to use/see/smell ever again), socks, wipes - and the bucket (STORAGE). Wrap it up in netting, with a ribbon. If you want extra, break a Baby Einstein 3 4-block set (these are le magic) out of the package and add them in... and/or a picture frame, album, etc. You're go.
Also? A gift card around the neck of the frog with a pink ribbon. Then she can get all the penguins she needs.
There are Robeez with penguins: [link]
oh my god those are cute.
also yeesh I just came off as Assy McKnowitall. Oh Friday. End.
No, that's for when your lover is being hung for a crime he didn't commit.
And when that happens during an afternoon wedding? Fashion nightmare.
Those Robeez are the cutest thing ever.

It would make a hell of a country song.

Not here.
No, that's for when your lover is being hung for a crime he didn't commit.
Even if he did commit the crime, I think that would be an appropriate outfit and sniffling!
Also, batteries are an awesome present. Very practical. I like practical.
