Baby Shower

July 25, 2007

 

It’ always fun to plan parties. Yes it's also pretty tiring but the effort is well worth it in the end. I myself have planned birthday parties and bridal showers but a baby shower…not yet. That’s why when a friend asked me to help her plan for our other friend’s baby shower, I was a bit reluctant. I love babies but I just didn’t have any idea how a baby shower goes as I haven’t planned or attended one before. But since I love my friend of course I didn’t say no. Instead I asked around and surfed the net for ideas. One of the sites I found was PartyPail. You can find baby shower decorations, themes and other needed supplies in their site. I found some cool themes like the little princess theme which I would love to have as a theme on my next birthday LOLS But since my friend is expecting a baby boy as she’s already 5 months pregnant, I think the Red Wagon Baby Shower theme (see picture above)would be more fitting. Hey looking at those themes got me pretty excited about planning this baby shower, I’ll make sure it’ll be a blast

I wondered why some equally great books were not included on the list, maybe I have to make my own list hehehe I only read 10 out of 30 but i'm planning to read all of them. I actually plan to read all classic books before kingdom come.
