My adorable little sister will be the cutest mom of the cutest little girl in a couple months. It still freaks me out a little, but not enough to not have a baby shower in the works!
Despite what my sister thinks, she is tiny. But tiny will this shower not be! It's gotta be epic! This week I went to my sister-in-law's cousin's bridal shower (sounds distant I know, but I am an adopted cousin =) and the theme was so great I've been trying to figure out how to make it work for babies. Each guest at the bridal shower got an invitation giving them a theme in which to bring a gift; mine was: first kitchen. I thought that the whole shower was first kitchen but turns out everyone who came had a different themed gift. Ex: first home, first night away from each other, first meal, first time entertaining, first game night etc. How cute is that? So for babies...would that be first diaper change? first portrait? first outfit? Not sure. There are a lot of firsts with first babies but I don't know what they are really since I do not have a first baby of my own.
Any thoughts? what other firsts that would make feasible shower gift ideas???

If she were having a boy, mustache binkys would be so appropriately hilarious. From here.
