need a gift idea ASAP

my cousin just told me she's expecting twins, and we decided to get together tomorrow night at their place for dinner. We are very close, and we talk just about every day. I want to get something to bring over tomorrow night, but can't order anything since nothing would get delivered in time. Any ideas on a sentimental gift to get at the mall or something before I head over there tomm?

A little basket or something with a card, two onesies with those cute/funny sayings and a gc so they can enjoy a nice dinner out before the babies get there. Or to one if this prenatal massage places.

I feel like in the mall you can do it at those kiosks, where they have the shirts. Maybe a baby clothing store or department store in the mall.

Maybe someone will have a better more concrete answer Chat Icon

ETA: baby’s R us or toys r us

Get a frame for the sonograms. You can find that at any hallmark type store.

I love hallmark for sentimental gifts. Sonogram picture frames or books are always great. Hallmark also has very cute white piggy banks that are gender neutral.

I remember seeing some in Macys over the summer. Not sure if they carry them all year long.

Diapers... any twin mom needs diapers, and a lot of them. For something sentimental, hallmark stores always have cute frames. I got a twin frame for my twins in a hallmark

I think the sono frame is a cute idea. Add a gift card for a maternity store since she'll need that much sooner than baby clothes or diapers. Save the cute onesie for later so you don't have to rush.

How far along is she? She may not want anything for the babies just yet, depending on where she is in the pregnancy. I feel like everything with pregnancies becomes about the baby, but mom deserves to be pampered too. I’d get her a comfy bath robe or slippers. She’d get a lot of use out of that now, and after babies arrive.

went to the hallmark store and bought a mug set for her and her dh that said "mommy's sippy cup" and "daddy's sippy cup"... I also gave her all my maternity clothes. Her sister started a bin of maternity clothing, then gave it to me for my pregnancy. I've added to it, so now I'm passing it to her. It's nice to be able to pass it around between us, and not have to re-buy everything!

I'll do cute onesies and stuff for her shower. I'm helping plan it with her mom and sister
