I agree about not needing the big stuff, but even sometimes those items might need to be replaced, either due to much use or new safety regulations. <BR/>I really have been thinking that the experienced mothers of the church should build a "What I wish someone had told me" book. Yes, there are a lot of "expert" baby books out there, but there is so much more experience within the hearts and minds of a church full of mothers and grandmothers in dealing with a variety of situations. <BR/>I thought the book could be in a binder and copied for each new mother. As those women grow into motherhood they could add their own page to pass on.<BR/>I am helping on the decorations for the next shower and am planning on doing this for the first time mother. p.s.- her baby is a boy and we are doing a Denise the menace theme- radio flyers and denim.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04308536241010378733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-480701661803419103.post-68760915874808654182008-02-28T11:49:00.000-05:002008-02-28T11:49:00.000-05:00Kim, I think it is a wonderful idea to throw a sho...Kim, I think it is a wonderful idea to throw a shower for every baby being born. My first child was a boy so we had lots of boy stuff, but when the second was a girl.....well, we didn't need the big things (stroller, baby bed etc.), but new "girly" diaper bags, blankets, clothes and don't for get hair bows can get expensive. Maybe instead of calling them "showers" they could just be a "Sprinkle"?Stacy @ The Next-to-Nothing Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00727518862013638903noreply@blogger.com
