You just found out your friend or family member had a baby and you can’t make it to the hospital, what do you do, and what will they think?  Sometimes, life’s hectic schedules can get even the best of us, and even though we would like to be there for all of life’s events we can’t.  That is why a gift basket is always a great gift and a well appreciated idea when someone has a new bundle of joy.   Sometimes the new mom is so exhausted after giving birth, that she would probably prefer the quiet time alone for rest and to bond with her new baby anyway.  Below are some pictures of my favorite gift basket ideas.  With these gift baskets, your gift is sure to be a hit and greatly appreciated.
