We’ve been shopping for strollers around here these days. Little Guy and Tiny Guy will be visiting Chicago soon and their mom thought a double stroller would make airport navigation a bit easier. We couldn’t agree more. And came across a great source for strollers and more. Strollers.com – Strollers.com offers a huge selection of strollers, baby gear, and diaper bags. Offering ranges from single, double, and triple strollers to jogging strollers, umbrella strollers, and prams. Free shipping and low prices on the world’s largest selection of strollers. Name Brands like Bugaboo, Maclaren, Graco and More. Also a great selection of diaper bags and other baby gear.
Not very many things last forever, especially when it comes to toys. One exception are the fabulous, high quality toys from Constructive Playthings. These are eternal toys – exactly like the ones we had when we were small. Wooden blocks, trains and more. Toys sure to inspire creativity. Classic. Simple. Eternal. And on sale.
By the way, classic toys like these make excellent baby gifts. While it might be a while before the new arrival can use the toys, Mom and Dad will be thrilled. People generally give clothing, gear and stuffed animals. Quality toys that the child will actually use are always well received.
I love this idea. Photo bracelets like this one from Lillian Vernon are great gifts for moms, grandmothers and aunts - for Mother’s Day or any other special occasion. They’re also great fun for the tween and early teen set. The bracelet is made of six small linked frames. You add the photos and it becomes a wearable scrapbook.
A photo bracelet makes a fun and anything but ordinary baby shower gift. What a great way for a new mom to keep the little ones at close hand!
Baby Browns diaper bags are so stylish you’d want to use it even if you weren’t toting baby gear. Their surprisingly affordable Stylish StorkSak Diaper Bags are frequently seen on celebrity moms. Angelina Jolie has been photographed many times with on of their diaper bags. A hip diaper bag is perfect baby shower gift that’s sure to please even the most style conscious new mom. Most orders ship free. Save $10 on any purchase of $75 or more with the coupon code below.
These cakes actually ARE for babies – and their moms too. Lil Baby Cakes has created an entire line of tiered ‘cakes’ made entirely of disposable diapers and decorated with necessities and indulgences for the new arrival. A variety of styles and sizes are available. What an adorable and unique baby shower gift! And a totally festive way to welcome the new arrival.

When a friend is going through a life changing event like a new baby, it’s natural to want to help out. I think the best way to do that is with the gift of a meal. Nothing is more thoughtful than dropping off a tray of ziti and a nice salad for the family. That’s easy enough to do if you live in the area. But what if you don’t?
Here’s a great service that will do it for you. Beautiful gourmet meals are prepared from the freshest ingredients by world class chefs, sealed and flash frozen to ensure freshness. 10 minutes from freezer to table. Servings are ample. Choices run the gamut from traditional to the exotic. There is truly something for every taste. Check it out. The pictures and descriptions will make your mouth water. By the way – there’s nothing wrong with ordering these meals for yourself. I also like the idea of sending a meal to someone who has recently moved or is recouperating from an illness or injury.
UPDATE AS OF 1/20/2008:
If you are looking for a fun and festive alternative to flowers, consider a balloon bouquet. Balloons are whimsical and just a little bit silly without being too ridiculous.
A balloon bouquet is a great way to add a splash to just about any celebration – new baby, birthday, anniversary.
