[Disenchanted]

(And DH would kill me if he saw I had called her his step-mum, PMSL.

Anyways budget of about £30.

something nice, bit different maybe?

yes the blankets are lovely!!

For mothers day last year DH got me a kit to make casts of DSs hand and foot, it came with a deep frame which takes a photo as well.
I was so pleased with him, and everyon eadmires them.
Thats what I'm getting for DB and SIL in July when their 1st arrives.

Eenybeeny - I'm glad that you recommend those fingerprint gifts - I've just ordered cufflinks for Father's Day. Can't wait to see them!

Yorky - I had a cast done of DS done in the hospital - it's gorgeous. Tried to do it myself for DD (homebirth) and it was a disaster!! You are obviously far more talented than me

I couldnt do a cast to save my life!

squiffy what is on the cufflinks??

Squiffy, cufflinks arrived the other day for DH birthday, they have DS fingerprints and name on the front, and the date on the back.
I was so impressed by how clear the prints are, but I wasn't sure how well it would work on a tiny. Not cheap, but lovely

can you link to a pic of them?

can you link to a pic of them?

here. I've ordered them with just the fingerprint, no name but a message on the back. Through the same website I've also ordered personalised Father's day cards with photos of the DC and their Daddy on them!

Sorry - I got confused earlier about who had linked to which website!!

those are really lovely!!!

Funny story - I just looked at this thread and that link now at 8 a.m. but dreamt about your cufflinks last night!!!

Don't like to say this but I paid £50 for mine DHs really aren't they!
from the site pastelprints.co.uk, choice of shapes, and a chunky style available if thats your mans thing
For cards I am in love with photobox who do personalised birthday/fathers day cards with a photo not just the wording up to you. The selection of designs for the front is a bit naff but I'm sure both my mum and DH will be delighted by the insides! Really handy if you call grandparents an unusual name too.

Sorry pastelprint not printS
Will try and take a photo of mine later
Squiffy did you have to get the kids fingerprint yourself with a kit?

I'm waiting for the kit to come but yes, I have to take the prints.

here are the cards.

what about a Moby wrap?

My daughter is 2 weeks old and it is a god send - was surprised at how easy it was to use (insructions fab) took about 2 mins to put on the first time, now down to about 30 seconds - baby loves it - she just screamed for 40 mins for no apparent reason so put on wrap and popped her in and shes sound asleep - really comfortable for me and baby!! highly recommend it - been on dog walks (can even bend and pick up poo without her even moving!) doing washing up, hang washing on the line etc etc!!

Just to let anyone interested know the baby was born early this morning, a little boy

DH is overjoyed he has a baby brother!!

lovely!!! congratulations to your whole family!
