(Why hands? Because babies put them in their mouths constantly!) Some moms will gladly pass their babies around, but always ask before scooping him up and always wash your hands beforehand and don’t touch the baby’s hands. If she’s holding the baby tightly, and seems hesitant to pass the baby around, then respect that and don’t ask to hold her baby. This depends on the mother so let her cues guide you. Perhaps a beautiful board book or two wrapped in beautiful ribbon, my favorite children’s book of poems, or a simple monogrammed bib. Now if you feel awkward showing up to the party without something in hand, you can always bring something small. But if you have already given the baby a gift, there is absolutely no need to buy another a gift! The mom should not expect one and, truly, it’s your presence that is appreciated. Check out these sip and see ideas, complete with five adorable party themes, sample invitations, menus, party favors and more. However, many guests will bring a gift, especially if they have not yet given the new baby a gift. Unlike a baby shower, where the baby registry may be listed on the invitation, gifts are not expected at a Sip and See. But generally you do no invite someone to multiple events for the same baby (unless it is a close family member). She might want to invite all her friends or just her closest ones – or perhaps just one circle of friends. If you are hosting, always ask the mother who she would like to invite. It is also a popular option when the mom no longer lives in her hometown but she and the grandmother want to introduce the new baby to lifelong family friends. Having a sip and see on the calendar assures friends that they will get to visit and meet her new baby. With its origins in the South, a Sip and See is when guests are invited to drop by to “sip” on light refreshments and “see” the new baby.Ī Sip and See is a popular option for someone that is not having a baby shower or sprinkle but whose friends still want to celebrate her new bundle of joy. Your little child won’t go well through hours and hours of hosting. Foods it’s vital that you realize that sip and see a party is a short-termed event. Unlike a shower or a sprinkle, a Sip and See occurs after the baby is born. When you are through with your sip and see invite list, it’s time to consider the themes and ideas for the occasion. I loved every beautiful detail, especially the thoughtfulness of the classic books! Today I am answering common questions about the etiquette of a Sip and See and sharing a beautiful Sip and See some sweet school friends hosted for Louise and me last fall.
