My family rented a place. It was a big celebration.
This is my first baby, a girl, so I too had to get her first dress, her first doll, ect. It very hard not to shop for your Lil one. And I must admit even though I received piles and piles of clothes when i go to the store and see something cute i buy it... my husbandalso shakes his head at me...lol
Chatt my husband has gotten irritated everytime I have bought something! He insists that his family will provide everything. I am not that patient though :)
Wow jackie where did you have it at? I only expect 30 or so. I'm trying, but I just love the little people section. I glad I'm not the only. My husband thinks I'm crazy and when we are out he just looks at me and shakes his head. Lol.
We have big families that love to party it was a great turn out and my parents and sister did it all. We had a great time and so did all the guest.
I thought mine was big and I only expect about 15 people! Lol how awesome Jackie!
I had a huge baby shower about 150 guests. We combined both families and made it Co ed. I know it's very hard not to start shopping but I wish I would have waited. I received so much stuff some doubles and even triples that I had to return a lot of it for store credit. I had piles and piles of clothes from size newborn to 18 months, bathtubs, high chairs, strollers, pampers, ect. The only thing I purchased was the crib. My hubby and I have big families and are truly blessed.
I have to curb my interest to buy things too. What I do is I pick up something little like a bottle or a small pack of wipes or diapers. I only buy clothes if they are clearence. It helps when I get stressed. My shower isn't until july 20th by the way and I am due Sept 23rd. Lol
My baby shower is on June 7. I'm just hoping to make it that long! I am anxious to see if people buy the things on my list or not. It's driving me crazy :) lol but I am grateful believe it or not.
Yes my shower is on a monday. We bought all the big items in feb. I'm over those items now. I'm just a little kid in a candy store.
Your shower is on a Monday? I'm due the 1st and know it's a Sunday so that's why I asked. But yes you should def wait to buy anything that is on your registry. My shower was a little over a month from my due date so I had plenty of time to shop and exchange gifts. Anything large that we were planning on buying we bought months ago.
