My Favorite Gift for a New Baby

July 12, 2016 · 4 Comments

My Favorite Gift for a New BabyWhen you get the announcement of a new baby amongst your group of friends or family, you can’t help but get excited. Then comes the uncontrollable urge to buy every adorable piece of baby clothing! Baby shower registries are perfect for picking exactly the style of products you want for your new bundle of joy, but along with the gifts soon-to-be parents know they’re getting, I love gifting a new baby something that is a bit more personal and unexpected. For my cousin’s adorable puppy and storybook baby shower a few months ago, we kindly asked each guest to bring a book instead of a card. And that’s when I fell in love with not only my favorite gift for a new baby, but children’s storybook.

I gravitate towards any gift, particularly for a child, that is inspiring, motivating, or stimulates creativity. So naturally I was instantly drawn to the title of “What Do You Do with an Idea?” by Kobi Yamada. You automatically know this book has a good message, perfect for a growing child. The images are simple yet beautiful, but it’s the wording and story of this book that I just love. It’s about a little boy who has an idea and the empowering of message of never letting any idea disappear. No matter how big or small an idea, it can grow to become something truly amazing. I’ve grown to love it so much, that I’ve gifted it to every new baby in my life so far, and even myself. Even J fell in love with this book, and demanded his niece on the way be gifted with it. You can see why it’s easily become my favorite children’s book, and gift for new babies. My Favorite Gift for a New BabyMy Favorite Gift for a New BabyAlong with this beautiful storybook, my favorite baby gift is an inspiring art print. I painted a quote from The Giving Tree, my cousin’s favorite book, for her baby boy’s nursery and found the loveliest quote for a baby girl on Pinterest. I love to paint, so these baby gifts are very personal to me, and something little ones can cherish forever. If painting isn’t your thing, Etsy has an amazing collection of art, perfect for a new baby. My Favorite Gift for a New BabyMy Favorite Gift for a New BabyIf you’re looking for something special to gift a new baby, pick up these items, they’ll be sure to melt everyone’s heart!My Favorite Gift for a New BabyMy Favorite Gift for a New BabyWhat are you favorite gifts for a new baby on the way?

    I would have so loved these gifts when I had my babies! So much better than a gift certificate or clothing! The calligraphy is lovely and almost makes me want to have a baby to hang up in the room!!!!

This Soba Tom Yum Noodle dish, inspired by @chriss This Soba Tom Yum Noodle dish, inspired by @chrissyteigen recipe wouldn’t be considered traditional but it does celebrate the beautiful Thai flavors I love. I’ll take all the spice & lemongrass please🍜😋!! It’s certainly become a staple of mine, one I’ve recreated several times & I highly recommend you save in your back pocket because it will leave you craving more...& more!! 

I used to post lots of recipes on the blog ‘til weddings/events/design took center stage & hoping to do so more again. Get this recipe on the blog now!
I read something yesterday, that made me instantly I read something yesterday, that made me instantly stop & reflect..."Some people think that having Hope makes you naive, but in my mind, it's so much harder to choose Hope over being angry or frustrated..." As someone who considers herself quite a hopeful person, I've had this on my mind since. Let's not confuse Hope w. toxic positivity {in which negative feelings or hardships are pushed aside}, when there is Hope, we still acknowledge our worries, the drawbacks of life, the sadness but still know that there is good.

We've all been doing our best nearing a year into this pandemic; the lives lost, families broken, the uncertain long-term issues, jobs, livelihoods disrupted & most recently too many people to count, struggling after a natural disaster. My heart breaks & is w. all of you, but despite the darkness, what I've also seen during these trying times...is Hope & Love. Communities & strangers coming together to help one another however way they can, even when they too are struggling to get by. That right there, is Hope. Be gentle with yourself, be gentle w. those around you. We’re all doing the best we can🤍
