Thank you all for the responses. We can't send them with the child because this has caused a lot of turmoil in the entire family. My husband is currently not even speaking to his mom or his sister (the birthmother) because of the way everything was handled. My husband and I were ingored over xmas because we wanted some kind of reason. We wondered if we had done something wrong. The birthmother is the one who approached us about the adoption. We were trying to help her out of a difficult situation so we are upset. My side of the family and our friends gave us the gifts and they are not very happy either. I think we will try to give them back to the giver, but I just didn't know if it would be considered rude.
