Baby Showers

Bring on the gifts!

So, I'm not having a shower because I just don't have the time and energy or patience for people all over me but I need some creative ways to get my registry out to everyone so they can still send me gifts! Ideas??

Re: Bring on the gifts!

  • Haha. You should probably post it on Facebook as your status on a daily basis, print off little cards to hand out in person and possibly paint it on a cardboard sign to attach to your dog so your neighbors can see it.

  • Are you for real???  You don't have the time, energy, or patience for other people.  But, you feel other people should spend money on you? 

    I hope you re-read your post and realize how self-centered it sounds.  If someone offers to throw you a shower you should be honored, not put-out.

  • August ladies, this is getting annoying.

  • You should def post it on facebook. One creative way would be to showcase a particular item every couple of hours and explain in great detail why you need this item! Then, you should twitter blast the facebook links to make sure enough people see this. Send weekly newsletters to friends and family via email and snail mail to ensure that even your non-facebook and non-twitter friends and family don't feel left out! You don't want to leave anyone out now, do you? Cool

  • Yeah no...

    Buy your own stuff. If you don't want a shower then that is what you do. If people want your registry information they will ask.

  • Have the card with the registry info say something like, "I don't have time for you & your attention, but please buy me gifts instead."

    He's the single greatest thing I've done in my life and reminds me daily of how fun (and funny) life can be.  He's turned out pretty swell for having such a heartless and evil mother.
