Title: DMF virtual baby shower
Post by: somegirl on May 19, 2008, 06:11:23 PM
As many of you know, one of our fellow DMFers, Neenja, is expecting a baby.  Her boy is due in early October.

Baby stuff can be expensive.  If any of you have leftover baby items, I'm sure they would be greatly appreciated.

Anybody able to help out?

I have access to a boatload of stuff. Do we have a shopping list of what she's got and what she needs?

Hmmm. Sign me up for the "baby be of use" book set.

Yes, it's real  (http://store.mcsweeneys.net/index.cfm/fuseaction/catalog.detail/object_id/5bf26a7c-80c6-4fd6-90d6-a6d9c7462611/BabyBeofUseFourBookBundle.cfm):)

Seriously, by Oct our little bruiser should be about 100 lbs (extrapolating based on his current growth) so we'd be glad to pass on some clothes (boy, right?)

Thanks you guys, every one of you. This is way too awesome.

Maybe Neenja should just register at Target or something and then we can all just pick stuff off that list.  For those of us who don't have kids, it might be a lot easier that way...

I think she has a babies-r-us registry, but it's nice to recycle as well.  I'm happy to keep track of the donations if that helps?

Anything I get in the mail I will glady write down and keep track of it. I can post up here regularly if that helps too.

Hey I know where she lives . . . Oh wait that sounds really creepy, nevermind. (Really I do, address and all).

Ps: my (wife's) baby is due before Neenja's. Hopefully he doesn't beat her boy up.  :-[

Due in Oct.ish? So you'll need birth-9 months winter clothes? Summer stuff in 12-18 month size sound good? Do you guys plan on doing a traditional "boy" color wardrobe, or can we send lots of bright colors?



Be forewarned, some of us will likely take our job as official DMF aunts/uncles very seriously and send the loudest, most obnoxious toys we can find...  ;D

I hear that somebody makes a ducati ride toy for toddlers and an electric one for about 3 to 6 year olds.

It is hard to look for the right clothes, I have to take into consideration how old he'll be when he can wear them and what season it will be. So birth to 6 months for warm stuff and 6-12 months for summer type stuff is what I've been getting.

I can roll with that. But my girls are ... well .... girls. Do you care about colour, or are you guys all modern and stuff and educated enough to know that dressing your kid in bright colours won't make him gay?  [cheeky]

You know I'm j/k, right?  ;)

If clothes won't work out, I'll hook up some toys.  [thumbsup]

Neenja,

When that baby is hatched, I'm taking you out for cocktails.  You'll need it.   [wine]

You are welcome to come though!

Has the gender been confirmed again (as much as possible before the bugger pops out)?

Might as well cancel that plan for a few months.
