The Baby Boom

Right now it seems like everyone is getting pregnant, or delivering their first baby. 

With a lot of my friends/ family having babies in the last few months, I have had to buy a lot of gifts for the new little families.

While I love going to Target and picking out whatever cute baby clothes they have at the time (which they always do), I also love looking for more precious gifts that others might not give as a gift. 

I am sure most of you are in the same boat I am with shopping for baby gifts, so I thought I would share some gifts I am loving. And just to be nice I will include a pay scale and a link to the original page! 

*Pay Scale out of $$$$$ (5) 
*Highest gift is $100 

{1. Luxury Plush Stroller Blankets by baby & child Restoration Hardware
Love them! They are so soft and you can personalize it with the baby's monogram
Pay Scale: $$} 


{2. Pottery Barn's Silver Leaf First Year Frame- I am all about documenting the baby's first year and this is a great way to do so. Plus, you can PERSONALIZE it! (You will see this is a theme.) 
Pay Scale: $$$} 

{3. Chinese Birth Year Shadowbox- by Uncommon Goods. This is a keepsake box for baby's first year, and it is personalized by Chinese Zodiac (i.e Dragon, Rabbit, Monkey). 
Pay Scale: $$$$}

{4. Handcrafted Language Blocks- by redEnvelope. These are a spin on the traditional letter blocks. They come in Chinese, Japanese, French, Hebrew, or Spanish! Can you saw awesome!  The new baby can play and learn! 
Pay Scale: $$} 


{5. Baby Monthly Onesie Stickers- by the Etsy shop MaddiesMomE 
Document the baby through these personalized onesie stickers. Cute Cute Cute! 
Pay Scale: $} 


{6. Vulli Sophie the Giraffe- one of the best teethers out there. You can pick one up on Amazon.
Pay Scale: $} 



{7. Land of Nod's Ticking Nod Chair- This, of course, can be personalized and is perfect for babies starting to crawl and walk. 
Pay Scale: $$$$$} 



{8. Honey Bear Lane's Puff Quilt- Perfect for tummy time! I found these through a blog I read called Little Miss Momma (if you haven't heard of her check her out), and I am in love with these puff quilts. Honey Bear Lane has her own blog and Etsy shop where you can buy either a pre made puff quilt or the PDF of the pattern, so you can make your own if you are crafty like that. Or if you have a mother-in-law that is crafty like that! 
Pay Scale: $- $$$$$ (just depends if you are getting the PDF or the quilt.} 



{9. Diaper Clutch- these are all over Etsy shops right now. They are perfect for a quick diaper change. Most clutches fit 2-3 diapers and travel size wipes. This one from the Etsy shop Penelope Pie Boutique 
also can hold some baby powder and includes a changing pad. 
Pay Scale: $$} 



{10. Baby Bliss in a Box- by Chasing Fireflies. This is a perfect gift for getting the family involved in the new baby. The family makes wishes for the baby and they are nicely stored in the box. Love it!
Pay Scale: $} 



What baby gifts do you love? 
I would love to hear your ideas.
