If we had more of a relationship I wouldn't quip about giving cash. :meh: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-baby-gifts#post-1977094 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 13:55:09 +0000 Meowkers 1977094@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@babycanuck: for a bris the customary gift is money. I don't think you need to get anything for the older child though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-baby-gifts#post-1977087 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 13:52:49 +0000 babycanuck 1977087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Sunshine: it's a bris for the baby (Jewish circumcision ceremony...if you don't know). I feel bad not taking anything so I think I'll do that - grab a wubbanub and a book for brother</p> <p>Thanks ladies! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-baby-gifts#post-1977057 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 13:35:11 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 1977057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is it like a sip and see/meet and greet the new baby type of thing? I bet gifts aren't even totally expected. If you wanted to bring something a wubbanub for the baby and maybe a book for big brother? I think that's plenty fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-baby-gifts#post-1977054 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 13:34:39 +0000 Bea 1977054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love to buy books. They can often be an inexpensive gift and you can buy two or three. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-baby-gifts#post-1977052 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 13:33:14 +0000 babycanuck 1977052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a baby celebration to go to on Thursday - no idea what to buy.</p> <p>Newborn baby boy<br /> +<br /> older brother is 18 months old</p> <p>I don't see these people often, and don't spend a ton.</p> <p>I thought about a wubbanub for the newborn, but is that enough?</p> <p>Help! </p>
