My SIL has three boys, and now they have a new baby girl. (Whew!!) They have a lot of stuff already, so other than clothes, I don't know what to get her. Any suggestions?

How about a gift certificate for a photo session at Sears or Walmart? Or a membership to one of thier savings clubs?

We got an AWESOME exersaucer/stationary walker for Carter, so you could consider this also. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Bright-Starts-Tropical-Around-Go/5412495 I think this is why he walked so early!

A gift cert. for a massage may come in handy. It's so hard to buy for moms with multiple chldren because they really don't need anything!

I like the idea for a photo sitting. Sorry I'm not help. I hate shopping for people that have everything. I'll keep thinking and get back with ya.

When Violette was born (girl #3!) I got about 40 little summer dresses. No lie. I could have had the child in a different little summer dress for every day of the summer, when I included the ones I already had! (Many are now going into the gift baskets our DS group gives out to new moms!)

I loved some of the pink toys and seats and stuff...they didn't make them when my first child was born...

Also, depending on what you like to spend I think anything personalized is really nice - you can check out esty and see if there is anything that would be cute -

Since she already has everything, I would go practical. Diapers, wipes, or baby food. Not that exciting, but I would appreciate it! Smile

Don't just assume that she already has everything! All the hand-me downs will be boy's stuff so I think she would appreciate new girly clothes. And with 3 other kids, diapers and even wipes are always welcome. The gift certificates also seems nice.
