Amazing baby gifts! I know the baby is 5 weeks old now, so this is a bit late, but we have only just managed to figure out which gifts are truly the favourites... but here they are! The snowsuit is almost 30 years old - my brother wore it as a baby. Its too warm to wear most days, but I thought it was worth preserving the second-generation use. It was handknitted by our friend Nancy. Next to baby-in-snowsuit is the best teddy in the world, which was a gift from Nana last week. (I wish it were mine! Not homemade, but amazing. So soft.)

The blue star quilt was made by my Aunt Ann, and shipped from the US, as was the soft soft lovely cosy blankie next to it - made by friends Tami & Devlin. What a lucky baby! Thank you to all craftspeople out there.
