Some Baby Quotes I Like…

Thursday, May 15th, 2008

Here are some baby quotes I found at www.allgreatquotes.com. Some are insightful, others are witty and some are just downright hilarious!!!

 

“Getting a burp out of your little thing is probably the greatest satisfaction I’ve come across. It’s truly one of life’s most satisfying moments.”
Brad Pitt (On his new child)

 

“Having a child is surely the most beautifully irrational act that two people in love can commit.”
Bill Cosby

 

“A baby will make love stronger, days shorter, nights longer, bankroll smaller, home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten, and the future worth living for.”
Author Unknown

 

“It sometimes happens, even in the best of families, that a baby is born. This is not necessarily cause for alarm. The important thing is to keep your wits about you and borrow some money.”
Elinor Goulding Smith

 

“People who say they sleep like a baby usually don’t have one.”
Leo J. Burke

 

“Babies don’t need a vacation but I still see them at the beach. I’ll go over to them and say, “What are you doing here, you’ve never worked a day in your life!”
Stephen Wright

 

One of our most popular gifts that people send to families that have a new baby is our ‘Baby Cakes’ Diaper Cake.  Available in pink, blue or a neutral colour, this gift is full of diapers and other baby items.  You can find it in our Baby Gift Baskets page.  Although the diapers never last long enough (especially if the family had twins or triplets), they are a welcome gift to any family with a newborn.

Some Babies are Just “Born to…”

Friday, May 9th, 2008

When creating new gift basket designs, I sometimes find myself drawing from my own personal experiences and memories for inspiration. Many of those inspired creations can be seen in our baby gift basket category.

 

During my childhood, my grandparents owned a farm and I spent as much time as possible there. I had a lot of friends who would come over to play, but the most memorable visitors were my “boyfriends.” There was one boy in particular who I have fond memories of. When we were 8 years old, we would climb up into my Grandpa’s John Deere tractor and he would pretend to drive me around the fields. We sure put a lot of “miles” on that tractor!  Those memories were the inspiration for the basket Born to Farm. When he has a child, I think it would be the perfect gift for his Little Farmer!

 

But that basket design may not be for everybody. Some people may remember “driving” their father’s motorcycle, feeling cool and grown-up as they “hit the open road!” In that case, Born To Ride would more suitable.

 

What was your baby born to do?  Grenville Station features a wide variety of baby gift basket designs but if you have an idea for a new design inspired by your baby or child drop us a line and let us know.  We’re always on the look out for great ideas and inspiration!

Baby Gift Baskets - Creativity Unleashed!

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

Often times, the most interesting designs to create are our baby gift baskets.  The vibrant colours, soft textures and gentle aromas allow for maximum creativity from our designers.  You always remember the reason for the design…new life!   Regardless of the price, the importance of the event weighs heavy on our minds and always ensuring the design excites the senses or stirs the soul are the primary motivators.  Sometimes an expensive gift basket for baby is required due to the important relationship with the recipient’s parents while a simple and inexpensive precious baby gift is sufficient to express your sincere affection and joy for their most precious day.  Remembering this is key to happy gifting…
