pearl, with both my dils I bought them jewellery. For both for the boys I bought a silver chain with a cubic zirconia on. Cost about £50 from Debenhams. Bought a matching pair of earrings for dil when Sadie was born.

I do have to say I am green with envy. I so wish I could have another grandchild. sadly I don't think it is to be.

Does she have a Pandora bracelet, or more affordable, a Trollbeads one. There's a huge choice at all sorts of prices:

It's something she could add to as the milestones happen. Other thoughts - some really nice pamper products, a promise to babysit as soon as she is able to leave the little one for a few hours so mum and your DS can go out for an evening, something for their new house, the baby's hand/foot print.
