Birthday Present ¶ 166

Birthday Present (Quarter Life Crisis) Quarter Life Crisis The world according to Sven-S. Porst « Coffee break • Main • In the paper » Birthday Present ¶ 166 words This morning Leif and me went shopping for a birthday present for Carola , who is having starting her quarter life crisis now as well. Well it was frustrating. We wanted to get a Rolodex file - but thought over 50 were a bit steep for a few bits of metal, plastic and paper. So, with time running out, we simply panicked. After lunch Stephie and me went on another trip and we got a nice large cooking knife. A very nice one indeed. Chopping vegetables is a lot of fun with it. In the shop we could try out the different knives on the salesperson’s lunch - which sort of compensated for the frustration. By now it seems, giving the knife was a good idea - so it was worth the hassle. We had a cake party this afternoon - I made a baked cheese cake and there were many other cakes as well. Later we ordered some pizza. Now I feel a bit sick.

FREE Newsletter. Sign Up Now! Fun and easy shower gifts to make! Baby showers are probably my favorite event to attend. They are usually full of love and joy and you get to look at lots of cute baby clothes. I also love to give baby shower gifts. I think it's a lot of fun to put together something special for every new little one. Sometimes I go and pick out things from a gift registry that I think the mother will enjoy or something that has made my days as a mother easier or more interesting. Though my favorite thing to do is to make something for the new baby. Here are a couple of ideas for quick and easy gifts for mom and baby, regardless of the sex of the baby or the theme of the shower! Gift Basket I usually choose a large, hollow item to fill with little things. A diaper pail or an infant bath tub are inexpensive and work very nicely. If you're looking for something smaller, try a bathroom bucket/caddy. It's also great for carrying the baby's small bath items around. You can stick with the bath theme and fill it with bath items. Here are some examples: Soap Lotion Towels Rubber Duck (with or without thermometer) Wash cloths Brush and Comb Some people prefer the health and safety approach for this gift. Some ideas for that category include: Thermometer First Aid Kit Electrical Plug Covers Finger Nail Clippers Emergency Aid Cards Child Proofing Book Door Locks Diaper Cream Infant Fever Reducer I also have days where eceltic is my style. Here are some other gift items that go well in these types of gifts: Diapers Rattles Onsies Toys Baby Books Nursing Pads Bottles Bibs You really don't have to spend very much on these gifts, most are a dollar or two each. You can also find some nice, but inexpensive baby toys at dollar stores everywhere, including bibs! If you don't have a large hollow tub or bucket you can also do a fancy party bag. Some people choose to individually wrap each gift, while attractive it can take a long time. I always put tissue on the top and let mom sort through as quickly as she likes. Diaper Cake This item is for those who are a bit more talented, though with practice it shouldn't be too difficult! The results are a delighful looking "cake" made of diapers and toys. Items you will need: Diapers (large pack of disposables or 12 cloth) Cardboard (Some choose to use a bottle of infant laundry soap.) Small gifts (rattles, toys, teethers, brush, etc.) Clear Tape or Rubber Bands Ribbons Cake "Topper" (Usually a small stuffed animal, can be left off.) Directions: Use the cardboard or laundry soap as a base, wrap diapers around it to form a bottom cake "layer." You can secure the diapers with tape or rubber bands. Start a second "layer" making it smaller than the first. You can do as many layers as you would like, I've only done two, but I have seen three done. When you're done with that you can take your smaller items and tie them up with ribbon and tuck them into the layers of the diaper folds, making them appear as if they are a part of the cake. If you'd like secure a small stuffed animal on top of the cake as a topper. This makes a great gift as well as a center piece for a shower. It was a lot of fun to do, but it took two people to make it look right. Important disclaimer information about this About site.
