Hello, Salem!

Welcome, and thank you so much for celebrating baby Salem Camino with us! She's due January 2nd, arriving right in time to warm up our Minnesota winter.

One of the most exciting parts of welcoming our daughter into our lives is sharing her with all of you. We feel your collective support in every way and are deeply grateful!

We welcome secondhand gifts and supplies in almost all cases. The only place where new items are preferred are for medical, sanitary and safety supplies like first aide kits, nursing gear, and car seats/strollers.

A few details to ensure she gets the most from your gift:

Please avoid toys, games, and books with electronic elements, flashing lights, speakers, or that require charging/batteries.

📚 Books with Notes - As a keepsake, we'd love to receive books with a handwritten note in the front cover for her to discover. These can be children's books or books she'll appreciate when she's older.

🍼 Feeding - We're hoping to breastfeed and pump for as long as possible, so nursing/pumping items, funds for ongoing lactation consulting, and milk storage supplies are especially appreciated.

💤 Sleeping - Salem will sleep in a bassinet next to our bed, so sleep sacks, swaddles, and bassinet sheets will get lots of use! Fun nursery items are really cute, but likely won’t get used in the first year.

💛 Hanging Out - We plan to spend lots of time wrapped up with Baby Salem, so soft baby-wearing wraps, swaddles, blankets, and lovies are welcome gifts.

Despite the cold climate, we hope to get out and about in Salem’s early months, so anything that helps us do that with ease would be appreciated, including supplies for car rides, winter walks, and travel gear.
