New baby gift?

My sister in law just had her second son yesterday.  Any ideas of something we could get her?  Since she just had a boy two years ago, I don't want to get clothes or anything like that.  Any ideas for something she may need or even something that is more for her? 

Thanks!!

Re: New baby gift?

  • I remember when my sister-in-law had son # 2, my Aunt gave her a gift card to Macy's.  She wrote a cute note about not forgetting baby boy 2, but knows she has plenty of stuff to get her through.  Instead, she wanted her to go buy herself something that she wanted or needed for the upcoming season.  She added what a great Mom she was etc....  My sister in law enjoyed. 

     

    Manicure/pedicure gift card

    Dinner card and you watch her children (if possible) 

    Gift card to get a family portrait 

    Good luck and congrats, Aunt!

    All wonderful ideas!  I really like the gift card for herself with a nice note.  Thank you!

  • If you want to get her something to go with the gc, for me diapers were always appreciated :)
  • You cannot go wrong with diapers! Definetly the best gift we received. My neighbor across the street bought us a gigantic club sized case of Luvs which we have been using for weeks now. We also received some as shower gifts in various sizes. Since DS was born on Valentine's Day, I have only bought diapers twice, and it's only because we ran out of newborn size diapers and DS was on the tiny side and did not fit into Size 1s. If you go with diapers, buy Size 1 or 2.

  • My go to baby gifts are the chamois stroller blankets from pottery barn kids.  I have them embroidered with the kid's name and birthday and everyone loves them.  I have one for my DD and they wash great and hold up really well.

    we got one of these as a gift for graeme (boy #2) and we love it! It was nice to have something new for him that wasn't passed down.
