Stock up on Christmas gifts for the little ones and new mamas in your life and have a wonderful weekend!

Here are some gift ideas for the special moms and babes on your Christmas list this year:

1. Grow-With-Me Bubble Dress in Carnival Bloom and Ruffled Leggings in Chocolate Brown
2. Mod Mommy Bag and Fliptastic Changemat in Birds of Norway
3. Mod Mommy Bag in Hummingbirds
4. Snappy Tee and Bitty Boots in Brown Stripes
5. Organic Cotton Snappy Tees
6. Grow-With-Me Peasant Dress in Rainbow Hearts

For my bag, I used one of our Mod Mommy Bags – they’re a nice, lightweight multi-purpose bag in a variety of fun prints. I’ve picked the Black & White Damask print.

Inside, I’ve packed some essentials that I definitely missed last time (like a hairbrush and toothbrush) and some extra comfort items that will be nice extras for this time! Here’s what I’ve packed:

• toothbrush & toothpaste
• hair brush & hair elastic
• lip balm
• socks
• nursing bra from Bellies
• cloth nursing pads from Bosom Babies
• Earth Mama Angel Baby Mama’s Nipple Butter from Bosom Babies
• nursing shirt from Bellies
• comfy pants
• going home outfit for baby
• baby blanket
• handmade slippers from Little Jumping Beans (for me)
• medications
• camera with fully charged battery
• cell phone charger
• handmade robe from plum pretty sugar (if it arrives on time – I’ve just ordered it!)
• packaged snacks for hubby and for after labour (to throw in as we leave!)

With baby scheduled to arrive any day, I love the feeling of having all of these items in my bag ready to go!

What did you pack in your hospital bag?

Our Snappy Tees are great to use as undershirts, and our Bitty Boots help keep baby toes warm inside!

Happy Fall!

It’s hard to believe that Golly Gee Baby started just two years ago after founder Christina Dennis was inspired to make clothing and accessories for her new baby girl. With the help and inspiration of her sister, Heidi, the pair started sewing unique baby goodies and selling them at local fairs. The business has grown with the help of our wonderful fans and friends, and this year we’ve been blessed to have been able to launch our new line of fair trade goods!

We can’t wait to see what the future has in store!
