Baby shower ideas...


So excited to finally be throwing this girlie a baby shower. She worked SO hard to get pregnant and a little boy is finally on his way. So... now I need your ideas and tips for the shower. I researched today and found a few things but thought my blog friends would have the best ideas! Thanks!

I thought the bottle sucking game was pretty funny that we did at Sarah's shower. I will try and think of some more things.

do the celebrity guessing game. one one side of the paper is the names of the celebrity babies and on the other side all mixed up is the celebrity parent, and you have to guess....when we did it there were like 25 of them.

another one that is cute is you do the same thing with maching up the names of the girls invited to the shower and what their name means, you can google it, for example my name means, cheerful or something like that. it's so fun.

you could do the measuring the belly game too, where when the guest walk in the first thing they have to do is guess how round the girls belly is with a ribbon. (you have someone at the door with a spool of cheap ribbon that cuts it wear they say and you measure it) whoever comes closest to the real measurement wins.

i hope these aren't too lame. i'll try to think of some more.

p.s. how did you get everything in the middle of your blog centered? mine is not centered and it drives me nuts.

So exciting you are getting a another little nephew! I like the simple games, like guessing the distance around the belly with a string, or everyone has a pacifier necklace and if some catches you saying a certain words like "baby" or "labor" they take your necklace and at the end of the shower the person withs the most necklaces wins.

i also like the baby food game where you take off the labels of the food and try to guess what it is. we will have fun regardless!

The one that's a memory/matching game with baby-related words on cards is cute. Whoever gets the match gets a candy bar that goes along with it (for example, if you find the matching cards that say "nursing," you get a Milky Way bar). I have a list somewhere if you want it.
