    Is there anything more exciting than the arrival of a new baby? The instant the parents-to-be find out that they're expecting, every moment in life takes on an added layer of meaning.

  • Baby Shower Gifts Ideas - Mother Goose Parade Gifts

  • Baby Shower Mother Goose Themed Food Ideas
    When you plan a baby shower, the 2 most important things are the guests and the food! Sometimes, when you decide to throw a themed baby shower, it may be difficult to plan out the perfect food to complement the exact theme. But here are some suggestions on how to incorporate Mother Goose food into your baby shower. 1. For fun, write as many different nursery rhymes as you can think of on note cards. Make as many note cards as the number of your guests. Then cut each note card at the middle of each rhyme. Seat your guests by giving each the first half of a nursery rhyme and having her find the rest of the rhyme at a place setting.
  • CoEd Baby Shower Parties a the Wave of the Future
    There are times in the past where having a baby shower meant that it was a hidden and secret ritual that was only enjoyed by women who were expecting and their close girlfriends. No one ever knew what they did there or what exactly went on at these affairs. Their locations were a well guarded secret and no man would ever dare to ask let alone attend one of these for fear of persecution from his peers.
  • Entertain Your Wedding Guests the Right Way
    At the end of the day, the cake will be a blur, the dress will be forgotten, and the flowers will be a wilted memory. The only thing your guests will remember is what a great time they had at your wedding. What they will remember is the foot thumping music and the non stop dancing. And that’s what you want, right? A wedding where people are dozing off in utter boredom isn’t your goal.
  • How Bringing Home a Newborn Baby Will Change Your Life
    If you are one of those type of people that cant function without 8 hours of continuous sleep than I urge you to never have a baby or to find someone to wake up in the middle of the night to take care of them. The first month we woke up every hour on the hour to give her her feeding and to change her. Even during the day it isn’t any easier because she still needs to be fed and she still needs to be changed. She will wake you up to make sure that it happens. Essentially there is almost no sleep involved for you during the first month of parenthood. I know that’s a tough pill to swallow but there really isn’t anything you can do about it. You either go in knowing full well what is going to happen or you don’t go in at all.
  • Making Your Own Baby Shower Decorations
    Deciding on baby shower decorations can be a lot of fun. What you buy may depend on whether the expectant mother knows the sex of her unborn baby or not. Some moms want to know right away, while others like to wait for a surprise. Whether the mom knows about the sex of the baby or not will not only determine the type of baby shower supplies and decorations you buy, it will also determine the gift and favors as well as the wrapping you buy as well.
  • Newborn Baby - What to Expect the First Month
    The magical day finally arrived. My baby I and are finally here. She was a douzy at ten pounds. In a few days we finally got to take her home and were we in for a rude and constant awakening. As I write this she is screaming her lungs out for no apparent reason. That ladies and gentleman is the nature of motherhood. You can do whatever you think is possible to try and help her but in the end you cant understand her and she has no other way to tell you what's wrong or what she may need besides screaming and crying.
  • Scrapbooking Keepsake Ideas for your Next Baby Shower Event
    If you have ever gone out to the store and tried to buy a baby album you would be surprised to see that ridiculous price they command. The same goes for materials which are specifically used to make scrapbooks. It is a million dollar industry because they command such high prices and people actually go out and buy these items. What would you say if I were to tell you that you don’t need to go out and spend a ridiculous amount to have memories for years to come? On top of that, these memories can make fun and amazing games at the baby shower itself. There are a few things you can go and buy such construction paper and all sorts of colorful markers as well as scrapbooking tape. You can also buy different kinds of glitter and anything else you wish to make your scrapbook look great.
  • Showing Your Baby how to Crawl May Teach Them How To Do It
    This Memorial Day weekend was a great week. We had a parade which I took my beautiful baby girl to see. We weren’t there that long because we woke up a bit late but she did see some of it. Along with that her uncle was with her and he was teaching her how to crawl. She didn’t exactly get it because she kept falling down and couldn’t get the coordination of it but that didn’t last too long. He would crawl around her very slowly and show her exactly how to do it. Then he would try and get her to do it.
  • The Joys of Being Pregnant - What to Expect when you are Expecting
    The experience of having a baby and raising him or her to be better and have more than you had is something that every parent strives to accomplish in their children’s lives. There are so many ups and downs to be being pregnant. All these different emotions I haven’t felt before as well as different mood swings. There are also so many different cravings that I have experienced that don’t even seem to make sense.
  • What to Expect After the First Month with Your Baby
    So today I have been with my baby for one month and it has been a crazy and hectic month. I am more tired than usual and I think that within the entire month I have probably slept maybe about 2 hours a day and that unfortunately includes weekends too. But it all happens the way its supposed to and I am always happy when I see my child and even though she is sleeping most of the time except for the times when she is keeping me up everything is great.
