DH got a box delivered to him at work about 2 weeks ago (before we knew baby is a girl). He opened it and inside were the cutest little Timberland boots, a Timberland hat, a Mickey Mouse rattle and a nice crystal-ish looking passifier (for decoration). The box was from a co-worker and his wife. Now this coworker is also one of DH's close friends from HS, so he has known him at least 15 years.
DH got a call from this friend about work stuff and during this conversation we learned that his wife picked out all of the gifts for baby. We also learned that friend and his wife have seperated within the last few weeks.
My DH told friend over the phone TY for the gifts, how much we appreciate them sending us something, etc. Should we also send a note to the wife saying thank you? We only know wife through friend, not sure if that makes a difference?
Also I hope this makes sense. Strange situation to be in!
Re: I have an etiquette question as well
no one will ever say " no don't send a thank you card "
if you are questioning yourself, just send one .
Ditto what everyone else said. When in doubt, send it out!
Edited to add: are you going to keep it all? Sounds kind of like boy stuff so I was just wondering. I know Timberland makes girl clothes too, I just can't picture that in my head

Oh I think Charli could rock some Tims with a cute pink skirt or something. If not I can pass them on to my nephew.

Those are very cute!
The only experience I have with Timberland is from high school and college where only the thug-boy wannabees wore it. You'd see an occasional girl in a logo sweatshirt or something, but it was from her boyfriend.
Up here it's either Columbia or Carhart. Warm and redneck, that's how we role

Those timbs are cute! I have two pair and love them. They come in handy in the winter!
Love the Tims, they're so cute. And I agree send a TY card.
