baby knits

My cousin's wife is pregnant with their first child. This is amazing news because apparently, they weren't supposed to be able to have children.

These people are sort of estranged from the family at the moment but I really like this cousin and his wife despite the family drama and I love an excuse to knit baby things!

Only, I have no idea what to make. I don't think they are finding out the gender and I haven't seen these people in over a year, I don't really know what they are "into". I'm thinking a simple baby blanket and a hat. Both patterns/yarn to be determined, maybe I'll go up to the store today. Maybe. Maybe not, I do have both of my own children today which makes trips to any store sort of um..tiring.
