Do you have plans this weekend?  |
|
What are you going to do this weekend? Are you going to go out of town? Do you have company coming over? Are you going to vegetate or do house work? Well this weekend I am going to have a baby shower at my house for my son's girlfriend. She is due February 21 with our first grandson. My daughter is hosting the shower and it will be at our home because we have more room and we live in a centralized area. I am so excited to have the shower here and the theme is: A TEA PARTY. My daughter is planning on serving 4 or 5 different types of teas and we are going to use some of my tea pots. She is going to serve tea sandwiches, spinach dip, deviled eggs, cup cakes and more food I am sure, we are going to play party games and open gifts. We have sent out 22 invitations, I sure hope we have a good turn out. One of my sisters are flying in from Washington. My sister who is coming has never met the mom so she is looking forward to that. What kind of baby shower themes have you gone to? What games do you like to play?

teapotmommommerced (5724) | 1 year ago | Deviled eggs are boiled eggs peeled and cut in half the long way. Then you take the yolk out and add mayo and other spices to it and then fill the mixture back in the whole where you took the yolk out of . Yummy

teapotmommommerced (5724) | 1 year ago | they are yummy. You can get recipes off the internet. I just take the yolk out and mix with mayo, mustard, dill and then re stuff the hole where the yolk came out. I then add a half of a Spanish green olive on top. YUM

3. ElicBxn (15537) | 1 year ago | Gosh, I've only been to 3-5 baby showers, and at least 2-3 of them were at work.
I can't remember themes, since the last one not at work was at LEAST 10 years ago.
The only shower I ever helped host was a bridal shower and that was more like 30 years ago.

4. MdImranHossain (262) | 1 year ago | Wow an exciting party! a tea party and using teapots! Really a nice discussion you have presented us dear "teapotmommommerced". I have no idea about the games what should be played at such party. Actually I am not familiared with such culture. Sorry. Wish to have a nice party.
| |
| |
|
|
teapotmommommerced (5724) | 1 year ago | thank you. A baby shower is a party that is given to a mother to be before the baby is born, the guests "shower" the mother/baby with gifts. We play games and win small prizes. It is a fine time for all to share in the happy time with the parents to be.
| |
|
|
MdImranHossain (262) | 12 months ago | Wow a great party! I think a welcome ceremony to the baby before born. I understood that it is very common affiar with you "baby shower". Unfortunately we are not familiar with such party or "baby shower". Normally our culture any arrangement about babies after born.
| |
|
|
teapotmommommerced (5724) | 12 months ago | I am learning that a lot of countries will not get the babies room ready until after the baby is born some ways that is good. We American's get the room decorated and all that stuff a head of time.

5. aseretdd (6864) | 1 year ago | I am planning to do a lot of cleaning this weekend... mainly because my husband will be arriving from abroad sunday night... i started yesterday... but there is still a lot of things to do... just hope i will be able to finish before he arrives...
The tea party concept of the baby shower sounds very nice... and very unique... i hope you won't mind if i borrow that idea next time we have a small party...
| |
| |
|
|
teapotmommommerced (5724) | 1 year ago | asertdd go right ahead and use that idea. I will be flattered. Have a great time with your visit with your hubby. How long will he be home before he has to go back abroad?
| |
|
|
aseretdd (6864) | 1 year ago | The school opted not to renew his contract because they decided to hire Native English Speakers... so we are not yet sure if he will be able to get another school to hire him so that he can go back there...
| |
|
|
teapotmommommerced (5724) | 1 year ago | Oh no does that mean he is jobless? I hope he can find another job to go to soon.
| |
|
|
aseretdd (6864) | 1 year ago | He already has a new employer there... but he still needs to obtain a new working visa... just hope he will be able to do that... since we will not be able to survive with only me working full time...
| |
|
|
teapotmommommerced (5724) | 1 year ago | I pray he can get a work visa soon. Where is he going to work?

teapotmommommerced (5724) | 1 year ago | Yes I am so happy to be come a new Granny. I am so looking forward to meeting my little one. The mom and dad are going to do well I think. I have offered to help as much as I can. They live four hours a way and it is only 39 dollars by train to get there. I can do it in a day and be there for them to work at night if they need a babysitter at night one day a week. They have changed their schedules so they only have to pay a sitter one day a week. If Granny goes up one day and then comes home the next day I can be there for the night and then they will only have to have a stranger with the baby every once in a while. Or I can do it when the baby is ill we all know who cold and flu season is.

7. cripfemme (5784) | 1 year ago | This weekend I'll be spending entire days at a music festival in Greenfield, a town near where I live. This group of organizers and musicians that I'm on the Board of is having their Winter gathering. I'm excited. It'll be so much fun. Even if I did have to fight for access, I don't get it to work out exactly the way I wanted. But I'm still going and planning to fight the good fight.
| |
| |
|
|
teapotmommommerced (5724) | 1 year ago | I sure hope you have a great time. I have not spent much time at music festivals. My son use to play in a band and we use to watch him play. He was good. He is one of those types that can pretty much pick up any interment and teach him self how to play. He is looking forward to playing music for his baby.

| |
|
|
teapotmommommerced (5724) | 12 months ago | reiny I think she ditched me she has not arrive yet and it has been three days now. Do you suppose she got out in the world and found the fast food restaurants and got side tracked with the food and all the pretty colors?
| |
|
|
reinydawn (4236) | 12 months ago | Acutally, my husband is using her again... So it looks like I'm stuck with her. I'll be calling her (not so nice) names in the morning:-(
| |
|
|
teapotmommommerced (5724) | 12 months ago | oh no see how you are you offer her to me and then take her back. heehee
| |
|
|
reinydawn (4236) | 12 months ago | Sorry!!! My husband kinda renigged in this offer:-( I'm going to go yell at her here in a few minutes, this should be fun (HA!)
| |
|
|
|
reinydawn (4236) | 12 months ago | Actually, yesterday was pathetic... I only lasted about 8 minutes and could hardly breathe... I'm going to give it another shot today.
| |
|
|
teapotmommommerced (5724) | 12 months ago | Rhonda kicked you butt can you go back down to the lower workout?
| |
|
|
reinydawn (4236) | 12 months ago | I was thinking about that this morning. I'll be starting another discussion about it here shortly.
Love the new pic!!! What a cutie:)
| |
|
|
teapotmommommerced (5724) | 12 months ago | Yes she is a cute I will be starting a discussion on what the vet told me about her back ground. She has some major aggression issues. I have been working with her and she is 90% better but it is a work in progress.
| |
|
|
reinydawn (4236) | 12 months ago | Cool! I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for that discussion:)
| |
|
|
|
reinydawn (4236) | 12 months ago | I did see it, but wasn't in much of a mood to chat, but I'm ready to read up on it today!!!

9. explorations (1520) | 1 year ago | I love baby showers! I've never had a themed baby shower of my own, but I've helped others plan them. One was Noah's Ark and the other was Disney Babies. When we set up for the party, everything was decorated according to these themes because that's how we knew the baby's nursery would be decorated. Each turned out pretty cute. Neither of them had any games, though, for some weird reason.
| |

|
|
teapotmommommerced (5724) | 1 year ago | When we first started planning this the mom said she did not like the games then she changed her mind. we did have fun. I helped with the games so I did not play. We had a tie so we ended up playing only two games and not three because we did not have enough gifts. Did you know now at a shower they expect party favors when people leave? I had never head of such a thing. My daughter did make up bags of goodies, we do have four left over I do not even know what is in them

I wanted to do it before Christmas but life got in the way so tomorrow is it. We will not be having guests now until March. In February our grand son will be born so we will be going out of town and I will be with the kids far a week or two.
