This Baby of Mine is a virtual shower for our dear friend Amy of This Heart of Mine. We wanted to shower her with love and congratulations on her newest addition even though we live all over the country. Our posts are full of great ideas for sending love and help to a friend with a new baby, even when you live far away. Check out the end of this post for all the other awesome ideas.
This is baby number three for Amy so I thought it would be nice to send a special care package to the big siblings. It can be difficult to give everyone the attention they need when there's a newborn in the house. I wanted the big kids to feel extra special, because they are, even if they have that new baby smell! So I created these cute free printable awesome big sibling awards to acknowledge their new found super star status. I also wanted to help their mama out by giving them a couple things that might keep them happily busy for a few minutes at least.
Here's what I included in my care packages:
Download Free Printable Big Sibling Awards - Download and print your own! I made four versions: Big Sister/Big Brother and Little Sister/Brother so you're totally covered!
No-Sew Crayon Wraps - These are still my go-to kid gift. Jude uses his regularly and I love that they fit so easily in a purse or diaper bag.
Sticker Books (affiliate link) - These reusable sticker books are so much fun. You can set up scenes and change them up as much as you'd like.
Now I won't be able to resist sending a little something for mom and baby too. I plan to make Amy some natural body butter and baby probably needs a super cute pair of leggings. But I hope the big siblings enjoy getting their very own congratulations gifts! As the oldest of three, I know what a big, exciting role that is!
Wishing Amy and her beautiful family so much joy. A huge congrats on a beautiful baby boy!
