Best Gifts for New Moms

christadiserio said:  After having my first baby, my sister-in-law and family sent us Omaha Steaks meals. This is such a thoughtful idea for a family with a newborn baby. With all of the chaos that comes in the first few weeks after having a baby, coupled with little sleep, the fact is that there's very little time or energy left to cook.

Omaha Steaks is popular for steaks & seafood, but also great for oven-ready or skillet meals. Most of the meals require little to no work at all. I even saved a few meals for when I returned to work and they were lifesavers.

The speaker is also connected to your Amazon account, so if you are running low on your favorite diapers just tell Alexa! The system connects to your calendar to remind you of future appointments and timers will remind you when to pick up kids from school! The Echo is part assistant/part speaker and a fun tool to have in your home!
