Do you know a Hollywood Baby? The type of little one that speaks fashion, style, and confidence before he or she can even say “Mama.”  Based in Birmingham, Alabama, Hollywood Baby is a premier custom order children’s clothing show.  With a generous gift card from Hollywood Baby, we hope Nicole will enjoy choosing from over 60 clothing styles with appliques, trims, and fabrics to complete her blessing’s wardrobe.

Being a new mom has it’s stresses! It’s true for us all. So for those moments when this new mommy needs a mini-vacation, Massages Unlimited has given her a Signature Massage Certificate. But Chelsea at Massages Unlimited doesn’t just recognize that Nicole may want a massage, she has also included a month of  Baby Balance classes. Baby Balance is a special class designed to learn how to give your baby a massage. So when new mom Nicole needs an extra hand to help out with baby’s tummy issues or just achieve a special bonding time, she will have to two skilled hands of her own for those special moments. Thank you to Chelsea at Massages Unlimited.

It is no secret that we love Peeper’s Clothing. So much so, our little blessings wear these adorable customized designs. We just knew that Nicole would love to dress her little one in an adorable, handmade JonJon.  Cindy at Peeper’s Clothing can customize and applique any of her adorable designs and she is affordable.  When it comes to baby gifts, let Peepers Clothing turn your idea into the perfect gift.

The Uptown Baby is a fabulous Etsy shop that really caters to the new baby with adorable onsies and matching bibs/burp clothes. But don’t take our word for it, check out what Nicole received from Ashley at the Uptown Baby by clicking this link.  Check out her other gifts including Pillowcase dresses in collegiate colors-perfect for those upcoming A-Day games and Easter Egg Hunts.

Until the weather warms up, Nicole’s joyous arrival will need extra cozy blankies to keep him warm. Thanks to Amanda at Thirty One Gifts, the days and nights just got a little warmer.  By the way, little one’s pacie will not get too far with his matching pacie clip.  Check out Amanda’s selection of monogrammed bags too. So cute and affordable, I even ordered my beloved Basset Hound her own travel pack. Seriously!

As much joy as Nicole is experiencing from her new blessing, we wanted her to experience the joy of adorable gifts from Grandmother’s Joy! If you have not been into this precious boutique, located in Crestline Village, it is worth the visit.  Nicole’s little one will enjoy his handmade Duckie and personalized bib, while mom can record her baby’s firsts in a sweet, keepsake journal. Thank you, Anna at Grandmother’s Joy.

When our new little blessings arrive, it’s all about the baby!  But we wanted Nicole and her husband to have a little celebration time of their own, therefore Jackson’s Bar and Bistro was a perfect choice to give them for a night out! With a warm cozy atmosphere, delicious entree selections, and located in the beautiful, sophisicated SoHo district, we hope she and her husband will enjoy a wonderful dinner, compliments of Jackson’s Bar and Bistro.
