How did you sign your thank you cards from your shower?

Sorry if this was asked already, I'm sure it was. How did you sign your thank you cards? Just you? You and your H? I had a women only baby shower so I'm not sure if I should include H in the signature.

TIA!

  • I asked my mom the same thing - she said to sign it from me and DH, so that's what I did! After all, they are his babies too!

    I just signed from me since it was a girls only shower.

    This is how I did it, too. Though I did say things like "We really appreciated blah blah blah."

  • We signed it from both of us; I figured we'll both be using most of the items. 

    DH signs his own name and I sign mine.  I wouldn't sign his name on anything unless he was out of town for an extended period or something.

  • I signed from just me for most of them. But, the ones that I got into more detail or including stuff about me and him (mostly to his side of the family) I signed his name as well.

  • I had 2 showers one from his side and one from my side since the families are not in the same state. For his family I signed from him and I, and for my family I mostly signed just from me, except on a few instances when we got something that he really liked/appreciated i.e. sports paraphenelia or something more machoey.

  • My H was at both showers.  I signed from both of us because we will both be using the items and we are both very appreciative!

  • Half were signed from both DH and I, since the majority of the cards were addressed to both (or all 3) of us, and the second half were signed from us and Colton, since I wrote them after he was born.

    I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929

  • I guess I'm kinda the odd one out. I didn't sign H's name, instead I signed them
    "Love,
    Tia & Baby Lucas"

    Not sure why I did that, but I did. *shrugs*

  • As far as guests go, our shower was mostly women only. Only my husband, my dad & brother and my BIL were in attendance as far as men go. I signed the thank yous from myself, Husband and Lucas.

  • If it was his family, I included him. Everyone else, it came from just me.

  • I signed them just from me, except for gifts I received at our co-ed shower -- those I signed with both our names :)

  • A thank you note is a piece of personal correspondence and should come from only one person.  If you'd like, you can reference another recipient in the text, but it should just be signed by whoever is writing it.

    Also, if this was a women's only shower, it really was just you who was the guest of honor. The gifts were for you, and you should be doing the thanking.

    I agree, so thank you notes came from me.  I referenced in the text that DH and I appreciate the gift, their thoughtfulness, etc..

  • I just signed them from me.  I did include DH in the thank you though by saying "we appreciate" and "DH and I", etc.
  • It depended on who the card was made out to. Just to me, I signed my name, to me and my husband, I signed both of our names.

  • I had two showers, one thrown by my husband's work, and one done by mine. Both were girls only but in the thank yous for his job I signed both our names because they all know him better. For my work, I just signed my name. But in all the thank you's for both showers I mentioned my husband and said things like "WE appreciate...." "WE love..." etc etc.
