    Talking Help me spend $150 on lovely baby stuff

    Sooooo DH's work mates have chipped in $150 to buy gorgeous things for DD2, I just have to say what

    But I don't "need" anything, sooo I need your help to suggest gorgeous items that I could get for DD2, the only thing I can think of is a lovely blanket...

    So hit me with your ideas, you may have to PM me any links to websites etc

    TIA!

    what if they got you a voucher towards a photo package from a local photographer specialising in babies/families.. You could get some beautiful pics to cherish forever

    I'll be killed if I buy another carrier I have four!
    The bracelet is a lovely idea as are the photos
    I have a Mini mink in cherry red it was given to DD1 and it stunning

    I wish I had gotten the prints for DD1 as well, and I was planning to it jsut never happened, and I think I will feel bad if I do it for DD2 and DD1 doesn't have them

    Keep the suggestions coming

    All I can think of is carriers (Im carrier mad atm! I have a close baby carrier coming for DD3, have a soft structured full buckle carrier for DS and DD1 and now am hoping to get a beetlebum or kleinsmeikker for going out).
    All I have bought for #5 is a glider chair second hand and Im getting the obvious car seat. I loved having NB Maz covers with their names on the back. I treasure them and will be keeping them for them to use on dolls/bears etc as they get older.

    How old is DD1? We got DS and DD (1 hand each, same frame) done when DS was about 7 weeks, DD was 8. I think they said they can do hands up to around 9 yrs old?? That was with twinkle toes..
