Real Mommy Tips/tricks/secrets for 1St Time Mom's Shower Gift

Hello all! I am putting together a book for a good friend who will be a first time mommy in August. If anyone has some good tips/tricks/secrets to share it would be very helpful!! Not looking for "advice" like sleep when the baby sleeps...looking for real mommy stuff ex: wash and dry babies socks in a delecates bag to keep them from getting lost.
