Bib for Christening
Hi! I am in search of a bib that my daughter can wear for her christening. She is wearing a gown that has been in our family for 102 years this year and she is a spitter-upper. I found some that are made of a silky material, but I am afraid they just wouldn't do the trick - seems like they wouldn't absorb anything. Does anyone know of a place that would have nice plain white bibs that are made of a material that is absorbant?

My aunt got me a beautiful bib-terry cloth with a silk cross in the middle-for my daughter's baptism 5 years ago. She LOVES Nordstrom at Oakbrook and got several other nice ones there too!

Hello- try Macy's, I've seen one there. Otherwise, just use a regular bib. You can always remove it for the pictures! That's what I did and no one ever noticed. =) Many blessings to your baby girl and family.

I'm not sure how absorbent it would be, but Strasburg has a 100% cotton one for Christenings. It's a bit pricey, but there is a Strasburg at the outlet mall in Aurora and maybe the would have it cheaper. Good luck! I know how nerverwracking it is to keep the kiddos clean on Christening day - my son had a major diaper explosion through his beautiful white outfit. Figures! (So maybe look for some plastic diaper covers while you're at it!)

J.C. Penney's always had such wonderful clothing and accessories for my children's christening. Somebody must have shared that info w/ me years ago. For some reason, I ended up going to the (Oak Brook?) store or Yorktown? store (not sure which one) but I don't really know if that mattered or if someone told me to go there. Good luck.
