Gifts for Aidan & Cora

We have been abundantly, overwhelmingly, (I use these words a lot!!) ridiculously blessed with awesome friends and family who have showered (more like poured on) us with both useful and fun gifts for both Aidan and Cora since before either of them were even conceived! With Cora expected to join us in less than 2 months (!!!) you all are at it again and we have lots of people asking us what we need/want.

You can guess where this is going - we seriously don't.need.anything! We'd be safe clothing triplets at this point! ;P

That being said, we know how much fun it is to bless others with nice things and we certainly appreciate every person who thinks of and loves us! If you are considering getting a gift for Aidan's 2nd birthday (2-14) or Cora's arrival (3-12ish), here are some ideas:

Second-hand blessings
We'd love to take any used cloth diapers, onesies, or burp cloths/wash cloths off of your hands! If you've been wondering what to do with them and don't feel like you can sell them - pass them on!

Buy Local/Handmade
We would *love* to help you support local businesses and artists! If you see something unique that reminds you of our littles we'd be honored to receive it. If you're not sure where to start, search through etsy.com (you can even see where the sellers are located!) or place an order for us with our friends over at Monkey Stitch!

Let Us Choose
There will inevitably be little thing that come up, so we'd always love gift cards to places that we regularly shop. Amazon.com, HyVee, HappyBottomus, and Champagne Baby are great choices!

Thanks again for all of your love and concern!
