Online Invitations for Baby Showers

Is it just me, or does it feel like everyone starts having babies and baby showers in the Spring and Summer?

If you or a friend is one of the many who's expecting this Spring or Summer, be sure to check out MyPunchbowl for help with every step of your baby shower party planning.

Of course, don't forget to take a quick peek at our free online invitations for baby showers. Here are two of my favorite invitations for a Spring baby shower:

Aren't they just lovely? And the best part--both are also perfect for a baby boy or girl's first birthday party.

If you've got a friend who's expecting her own bundle of joy in the near future, I definitely suggest checking out this creative baby shower gift idea.

From time to time, I've been invited to baby showers for friends of friends and haven't been sure what to bring. After a fair few failed gift attempts, I've learned that something simple and straightforward is always safe in those situations.

For example, you might simply bake cupcakes and frost them with light blue, pink or yellow icing depending on the known or unknown sex of the baby. You'll be surprised at how quickly a group of hungry women will snap them up!

One of the best gifts I've received at my own baby shower was a baby pillow with two monogrammed baby pillowcases. Since I didn't reveal either of my kids' sexes or names before they were born, the pillowcases were embroidered in pastel purple and green and simply read "Baby."

The best baby shower gift advice I can give is to stay simple. All parents and babies need certain things in those first few months, and an extra Diaper Genie never hurt anyone!

Enjoy Planning.
