I would like to give my kids a "present from the baby" when they get to see him for the first time. I want something simple but enjoyable. My kids are 6, 3 1/2 and 2 years.

Answer
There's always the "older sibling" t-shirts. The other thing that they would probably find a lot of fun would be a camera. You could get them a cheap disposable camera and a little photo album. Let them take pictures of the baby and of them with the baby, then print them for them and make them a little album.

If you are invited to the baby shower, should you get a birth announcement?

I think it is tacky to not send a birth announcement to someone that was invited and gave a gift at a baby shower. My mom doesn't think it is necessary because none of her friends kid's have sent birth announcements even though she has been invtited to their showers.

Answer
I have been to about 8 or 9 baby showers and never have received one-- I thought that tradition had been pretty much dried out? Maybe thats just around here (in Virginia)...
