Hello all, I really want to get my parents a gift to congratulate them on becoming grandparents & to thank them for helping us out so much recently... they've helped me do the garden, clean the house & even given us a car, as hubby's as been in the garage sonce November! Anyway, really want to get them something, just not sure what???
Also thought it would be nice to get hubby's parents something, although they haven't really been very involved as they live so far away, but want to make them feel more included...
Finally, I really want to get my hubby a present to congratulate him on becoming a Daddy... any ideas????
Any suggestions??? Thanks girls xxx

If you wait til baby arrives you could make them a baby handprint and/or footprint gift set. A framed pic of bubs or the three of you together would also go down well! xx

I got Daddy a mug set was from card shop for fathers day and says to the worlds best Daddy on it with coaster, cheesy but he will like it and all in same matching bag etc, I did look for a new daddy card too but couldnt find one anywhere..... I know they have new grandparents card and like bliss said you could get photo and put in lovely grandparents frame and wrap that up, Im sure they would be thrilled. xx

Aw how lovely I think waiting till baby is here is a good idea... but if you are wanting to get something before then, then maybe treat them to a meal or something to say thank you? depends how much you are wanting to spend really?

Im not getting hubs a present when babies born... after all I have giving him a child and to be fair i've done all the hard work lol Altho like WW I am going to get some novelty 'I love Daddy' gifts for fathers day and I'm planning a picnic or something... cant believe how excited I am about fathers day actually lol

PS, Moonpig may be a nice idea for a card... you could customise it and also you should be able to get a daddy to be one xxxxxxx

Awww what a lovely idea! I agree a personalised gift would be lovely, hand/foot prints or a picture gift would be lovely. Mothercare had some nice things in too. I spied a bottle of pink champagne in the fridge last night yum x x x

I like the idea, I was thinking of getting hubby something too.
I have found these albums for Grandparents. http://www.mamasandpapas.com/product-millie-boris-photo-album/484345310/type-i/

Or the handprint idea which I also think is great, I think I am going to get one.
