Advice - what to write in a card

DH's co-worker / friend and his wife had a baby back in December.  I meant to send a gift then, but never did.  We are now meeting their daughter for the first time, and I did buy a gift for her, but am not sure what I should write in the card.  It's not like it's her birthday and she's not a newborn.  What I want to write is - Sorry I'm an idiot and was too busy to formally acknowledge your new baby - sorry, hope this makes up for it!  Obviously that won't work though - any suggestions?

Thank you.

    Oh this is good! Thank you. I'm so bad at this stuff and really need to get better.

    I like this too. FWIW, we had a GTG when DS was about 10 mo old with some of my coworkers that had babies in the months after I did. They brought us gifts for him for the first time then. So I don't think it's all that unheard of.
