Great idea!!! We got Matilda fish.... sounds funny I know, but the baby brought home fish!!! It was amazing... Pete brought Matilda to pick us up from the hospital and when we got home the fish were there! The week I was due we filled up the tank in anticipation for the baby to bring the fish.... it was something to take away Matilda's focus on the baby.

Looking back, I think a book or doll might be more tangible and a better option, but thats what we did.
