My daughter made me a grand mother today. I have been pondering getting her/them something very special. I would like some suggestions from all of you parents and grand parents out there. What is the best gift you have ever received in helping you with a brand new baby girl.
Please note this is not for a baby shower; we have already had a baby shower. This is just something special for them. My grand daughter was born today. What is the best gift you have received or something you may have bought that made your life so much easier or was just extremely neat ot have.
The gift that made my life easier and i don't think i could have lived without was my boppy pillow. It made nursing her and rocking her at 2am much easier. It was great to set on the middle of my bed and set her in the middle so i could read, or fold laundry or anything else that she could watch me. It came in handy when she was learning to sit by herself too! The gift that i got that was really neat to have, and reduced alot of guilt, was a baby's first year calander. It had stickers for every first imaginable, i could just stick to the appropriate date. It also had a little place to keep track of her eating habits too. A big help for doctors appointments early on. CONGRATS!!! Go GRANDMA!

My son has been selected to be a Student Ambassador to Europe this summer and needs to raise $6,000. He is already doing holiday pie orders, Christmas gift wrapping, auctioning off a horse, selling lollipops for Valentine's, and a travelling flamingo...uh...thingy. What else can you think of?
I might be able to come up with a few things for you. These have been tried with schools before and have been very successful. All you have to do is go out and get 'er done LOL
- Cookie dough. Won't cost you anything up front, take orders and have the product shipped to you. Arrange an announcement to let the student know when to pick it up, you won't even have to deliver. Works well for selling at the mall as well.
- Get skratch cards. Hand the cards to people, they skratch off a donation amount, you give them a coupon to a local resteraunt. Simple and raise a lot of money quickly
- Put on a concert or sports event at the school, charge for admission, plus have your food there to make extra money. Get school bands, comedians, storytellers to perform.

Good luck with whatever you pick
