What is a hip, new and coveted gift for a newborn these days?

We have some good friends that just had a baby girl last week. They have everything, but we would like to get them a nice gift anyway.

I thought I would turn to you gals...what is something really cool or even a cool store to order from?

TIA!!!

Why not get them a gift certificate to get their baby's portraits done? PLaces like Babies R Us and Sears and JC Penney's and Target all do them.

I was thinking the SAME thing!

I think a gift card to get portraits done at Kiddie Kandids is a great gift (that is the place in BRU) and I would have LOVED for someone to get that for us!!

Try this website www.pinktaffydesigns.com

they have some cute things....I like the diapees and wipes things...I got the baby bling pacifier from someone....she will never use it. Some of the celeb babies have it.

Also try.www.uncommongoods.com. Someone bought me the trumpette socks from there.

www.babystyle.com....have some cute things too.

Good luck. I am sure whatever you give they will love.

Janie and Jack have nice clothes.

Jack and Lily have cute shoes!

How about a Cuddle Coat by Bunnies By The Bay?

I can recommend a few great stores in our area for baby gifts. There's a cute one right in Westfield - FM me if you want the info.

Anything personalized is really nice.

You might want to check out Nordstrom website under gifts for baby-the blankets are beautiful.

The gc for a phototgrapher IS a nice idea for this time of year, a lot of moms take their kids for holiday pictures to send out.
Here are some websites to check out:

Someone recommended this http://www.patemm.com/

It's a pad to change diapers and has pockets to put different things on it. When the baby is older, she can sit on that, too. Is better if you check it, because I don't know how to describe it Chat Icon
