What if the little legacy is a legacy to several different sororities? Would that require several different baby books?


















And you do realize that I'm kidding, don't you?

There's so much stuff out there for children of alums and it scares me. I'm beginning to think that the tradition of giving special consideration to legacies is out the window. Almost all the legacies we know who have gone to larger universities since about 2000 have been cut and how awful would it be if someone had kept up one of those books and her daughter knew it and then she was cut?

I mean, we knew 6 top girls who were cut last year by their legacy sororities and this isn't some little isolated happening.

I'm with you, Carnation. seems a little...twisted.

I'd rather buy a baby onesie or t-shirt for a sister that says something like
"My mom is hot! She's Gamma Phi" or something like that for a baby shower gift...but I've never seen any baby greek gift stuff. It must be out there???

Just to get me going...he thought it was funny...and I had to laugh too...when I brought my son home from the hospital my husband had taped a picture of a little boy praying over the crib. It had a caption that read "and please God, make me a Sigma Chi..." It's in his baby book now!

Hey,Chi Omega has a maternity shirt -
"Little Hootie on Board" - that their HQ sells. And a diaper bag! The shirt would be okay if you were one of the lucky women who looks cute during pregnancy - I looked like a beached whale (gained 50 - 70 lbs. each time) so I did NOT want to be representing Gamma Phi during that time!

Good gosh, we have a whole page of baby & children's items! Onsies, t-shirts, bibs, even dog collars are All In The Family!

Hey...thanks for the plug!

Actually, it's the "Baby Hootie Nesting" tee, available exclusively through Chi O Creations.



xo_kathy, do you know if you're having a boy or girl?

I'm planning on having shirts made for my kids that say:

ASA Legacy
FKT Legacy

And having their pics taken together.

Yes, I'm one of THOSE moms.

I'm waiting for delivery of my son's "A Gamma Phi loves me!" shirt . . .

and see, the Chi O model looks like she has a little basketball under that shirt - not like a beached whale!

Is there a closeup available of the embroidery? That sounds so cute.

My good friend, a third generation Theta who married a guy with a Theta mom and sister, had a ton of Theta baby stuff given to her at her baby shower. A onesie and tshirt that said "Future Theta" and a baby-sized yellow swimsuit with black kites on it!
