I knew this was coming, I was just waiting and waiting for it to show up, but I have now been invited for my second baby shower....and they are both two weekends in a row.
I hope they serve mimosas. If not, would it be tacky if I just brought a bottle of margarita mix with tequila and a straw?

I'd support that. Or you could bring a flask of Jack and just pretend its only Coke
I'm dreading my first shower invite. But I know its coming...a good gf of mine is due in April. Any day now someone should be sending out invites..

I went to one in Dec for my college roommate not long after my m/c. Fortunately, I was so drugged up on cold medication that I got through it. And came home to a BIG glass of wine and supportive hugs from dh.
It's hard. If you decide to go stay strong (and margaritas in a water bottle are a really good idea!)
One is for my cousin, and it would save family drama for me to just go (they are all sensitive) and the other is for a really good friend of mine.
I mean, I can't just stay in my house all time and ignore everything that is going outside, as much as I would like to though.
And I figure, each shower will just get easier and easier with time. No time like the present I guess.........(I am also working at trying to stay positive this year, do I sound convincing?)
