Welcome Home Baby Tommy!

Story

The countdown is on! Claire and Pat are getting ready to welcome their baby in early June (or sooner!). As they adjust to life with a newborn and a lot less sleep, we are hoping to make things a little easier by keeping them fed, supported, and surrounded by people who care. We created this Give InKind page as a central hub for anyone who wants to help to jump in. Whether it is a meal, a quick errand, or a small gesture, it all truly helps during those first few weeks at home so the parents can focus on what matters most: taking care of and bonding with their baby. How You Can Help: -Meal Train: Sign up to drop off a home cooked meal or their favorite takeout (or just send them a giftcard or Venmo). -Coffee and Treats: Drop off their coffee order or bring snacks, desserts, or anything you think they would enjoy. -Errands: Help with a quick store run or pick up a grocery order. -Cat Care: Stop by to feed Bagel and Chewy and check in on them while Claire and Pat are out. -Send Something: Help them out with added expenses by sending something from their Amazon wishlist. Check the calendar below for available dates and any preferences, like favorite meals or ingredients to avoid. There is no gesture too small and everything is appreciated. Thank you for being part of their support system as they get ready to welcome their baby!
