    3 year old daughter : I have a 2 and 3 year old daughter, they are very much into dora right now, so I plan on getting them dvds, books, coloring books, clothes, shoes, etc. and they will mostly be dora.

    Newborn: Congrats! I would get a really cute dressy outfit and have her pictures made. Also something soft like a teddy bear, blankie, etc. and of course some great smelling bath time products!

    Dad: I would make a gift basket. Include his favorite coffee beans, creamer, sugar, nice mug, maybe flavored liquor like baileys, flavored coffee, etc.

    Younger Brother: I would play it safe and get a gift card for clothing store, game store, etc. unless you want to get into alot of money with a spoiled 15 year old!! Or maybe even a gift set with axe or bod body wash, spray, deodorant, etc.

    Older Brother: Maybe a gift certificate to a nice restaurant for him and his girlfriend. Or even a gift basket for a romantic stay at home dinner. Maybe include dry pasta, sauce jar, loaf of fancy bread, wine, and a candle or a few candles. Maybe even add a nice tablecloth to line the basket.

    Best Friend/ Cousin: Im a fan of gift baskets… I would include some momentos if she is moving far. Maybe a framed picture of the 2 of you, or something that would signify something you like to do together. And the obvious godiva chocolate…

    Aunties w/ families: Maybe kitchen essentials such as sugar, flour, cake mixes, frosting, brownie mixes, etc.

    Single Aunt: Bath products, bath and body works, candles, etc.

    Grandmother: A religious book or bible tote maybe?
