That's all we're getting this year since she's too young to understand it's Christmas and doesn't need anything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-ideas-for-newborn-at-christmas#post-2361724 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 14:46:52 +0000 jlm22 2361724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: What about a wooden puzzle of DD's name? Just an example: <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/79408133/handmade-wooden-name-puzzle-custom?ga_order=most_relevant&#038;ga_search_type=all&#038;ga_view_type=gallery&#038;ga_search_query=wooden%20name%20puzzle&#038;ref=sr_gallery_2" rel="nofollow">https://www.etsy.com/listing/79408133/handmade-wooden-name-puzzle-custom?ga_order=most_relevant&#038;ga_search_type=all&#038;ga_view_type=gallery&#038;ga_search_query=wooden%20name%20puzzle&#038;ref=sr_gallery_2</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-ideas-for-newborn-at-christmas#post-2361720 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 14:45:42 +0000 Torchwood 2361720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're getting LO a foam mat, play yard, and non-breakable mirror. Basically things we'd like her to have anyway. Her Amazon wish list has clothes that are super cute but too impractical to justify spending the money on normally, and toys of the same sort. We don't have an older kid, but we have far more clothes than we need and plenty of toys for the next several months, so somewhat similar situation. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-ideas-for-newborn-at-christmas#post-2361719 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 14:44:19 +0000 birdofafeather 2361719@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jlm22: we have one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-ideas-for-newborn-at-christmas#post-2361709 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 14:39:39 +0000 jlm22 2361709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: I like the ornament idea. O-balls? They are my favorite baby toy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-ideas-for-newborn-at-christmas#post-2361699 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 14:33:20 +0000 birdofafeather 2361699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@twodoghouse: oh, maybe another set of dishes to add to our collection. definitely a first ornament!<br /> @Foodnerd81: i got us all matching jammies!<br /> @MOMTOLITTLEB: i'll have to use that if DD1 asks!<br /> @rattles: oh, that's a good one. i'll have to look at DD1's shoe collection to see how worn they are! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-ideas-for-newborn-at-christmas#post-2359904 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 14:34:41 +0000 rattles 2359904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did a first Christmas ornament, an Oball, a Take Along Tunes, and then wrapped some necessities like diapers and a few new outfits to even the present score with her big sis. Maybe something personalized? We did the Robeez shoes with her initial on them since so much of her stuff is hand-me-down from her sister. They're 6-12 month size. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-ideas-for-newborn-at-christmas#post-2359835 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 13:55:22 +0000 MOMTOLITTLEB 2359835@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got my son two small toys- one for his car seat and one was a play tray for his baby seat that he'd grow into eventually. I bought both about a week before he was born- he was 3 weeks old at Christmas!</p> <p>My then 6 year old nephew did ask what Santa brought his cousin and I could have just made up a few more things but he caught me off-guard. My aunt told him that my son hadn't banked that much good behavior yet, he seemed to accept that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-ideas-for-newborn-at-christmas#post-2359824 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 13:49:56 +0000 Foodnerd81 2359824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>An ornament is a good idea. Maybe something matching with your older DD, like big sister little sister t shirts?(I know you said no clothes...) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-ideas-for-newborn-at-christmas#post-2359820 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 13:43:35 +0000 twodoghouse 2359820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pacifiers, teething toys, headbands? Maybe spoons or dishes? Babies first Christmas ornament? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-ideas-for-newborn-at-christmas#post-2359813 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 13:40:26 +0000 birdofafeather 2359813@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD2 will be less than 2 months at Christmas. Besides the fact that she doesn't actually know what's going on, we have a plethora of things from DD1 that's she'll use. BUT, I still want to get her a couple stocking stuffers and a gift from Santa as well as a gift from us especially since DD1 actually kinda gets the idea of Christmas this year. And our families probably want ideas too. SO, what the heck do you get a newborn? I'm trying to think of gifts that will be useful later in the year. No need for clothes, stuffed animals, etc. Help me remember what's coming so I can get something for her! </p>
