What would Christmas be without a robe under the tree? This Cherry Cupcake Ladybugs Short Sleeve Robe is made out of 100% cotton and is covered with ladybugs. The inner lining is a very comfy terry fabric so your little one won’t complain too much when you tell her to put on her robe because it’s cold. Once the cold weather season is over, you can bring this sweet robe out again in the summer as a cover-up after a day at the beach.

This Dolphin Bath Bucket from Elegant Baby would not only make a fun baby shower gift, but would also be great as a centerpiece on Mother’s table at the baby shower. The bright blue antique metal tub-style basket is very attractive and dolphins are always a favorite.

The Dolphin Bath Bucket contains a mesh poof, a dolphin soap dish that floats, a tiny rubber dolphin, and a dolphin-shaped wash cloth. I can think of several re-uses of the metal bucket: as a container for hand soaps, a holder for face towels, to hold your baby’s favorite bath toys (including the dolphin), or as a holder for after-bath powders and creams.  You can visit the Web site at oompa.com and purchase this item for $19.99.
