IN PLACE OF A CARD

Books for Baby

Instead of a card, please bring a book for our little star.

Write a note to him inside the cover: a wish, a memory, a little bit of love.

Well loved or brand new, every book will be treasured. And each time it is read to him, you will be part of his story.

The Diaper Fund

Alexis & Eric have chosen cloth diapers for their little star, so there is no need to bring any. If you would like to help, a gift to their diaper fund, or toward anything he will need, would mean the world.

Wishes for the little one

The Registry

Alexis & Eric are registered on Amazon. If you would like to bring a gift, their registry gathers the little things they are hoping for as they welcome their star.
