Mommy of 2
I am having a baby shower at the end of this month.. My mom has no idea what kind of games to play or what all we can do there...
Here is some info........
We are having girl.
This is our second child.
We have a 2 year old boy.
The party is a cookout/shower and men and as well as women and children are gonna be there.. But the kids are already taken care of.
What kinds of games can everyone play?
What kinds can just the women play?
What can the men alone do?
What all should we have at the shower?
We have cake, streamers, plates, napkins, cups, the food for the cookout, and balloons. What else do we need to do or get???
I didn't want a shower in the first place, but my mom insisted because this will be our last child, and I didn't have one the first time.. But really none of us know what we are doing, and I have only been to one shower, my mother hasn't been to any. It was her idea but somehow I got stuck helping... lol.. but that's ok..... :)
Thanks!!!
Answer
you might want to get gifts to your guest that win the games 1. How fast can you drink from a baby bottle?
Think it's easy? This game is a lot harder than it looks. Take four or five volunteers from the party. Fill four or five 4 oz. baby bottles about a quarter full with juice or water. Hand each one of the contestants a bottle, and say drink. Who ever finishes the bottle first wins!
2. How big is Mom's belly?
This game involves the whole party. Ask guests to tear toilet paper off a roll that they think will match closest to the size of the mother-to-be's stomach, if it were wrapped around her. The one who tears of the right length or closest, wins.
3. Dirty Diapers?(Baby Shower Game Pick)
Take a napkin (one per guest), fold the napkins resembling a diaper and secure with a diaper pin. Attach the "diaper" to the bottom of each guests seat in advance. Place mustard or chocolate in one. Have everyone at some point during the party reach under their chairs. The one with the "dirty" diaper wins a prize.
4. Can you guess the baby food?
This free game involves getting five different kinds of baby food. Take the labels off the jars and mark the bottom of the jar with a number 1-5. Set them down in an area where guests can examine and smell them. Have everybody write down what type of baby food they think is in each jar. The guest with the most correct answers wins this baby game.
5. Guess what baby items are in the bag?
Place 10- 15 commonly used baby items in a large paper bag. Give each guest a pen and a sheet of paper. Let each guest stick their hand in the bag, touching the items, without looking. After each guest has had their turn, let them write down as many items as they can remember on their sheet of paper. The guest with the most correct answers wins!

I need a poem that includes gifts for a mom to be that already has one kid to be given at her baby shower?
Kristie S
I have seen poems that incorporate products/presents (such as Snuggle, Parents magazine, Kisses *hershey*, ect) for a NEW mom, but my sis is having her second child and i love that idea and i am not in the least bit poetic, but i would love to read her a poem and give her gift and things she needs for baby number 2!!! Any ideas?? If you are confused let me know.......
This is an example of what im looking for:
What to Expect the First Year
Here are some ideas for the [Parents (magazine)] - to - be
The [formula] for nurturing your sweet new baby
The [light (night light)] of your lives, your baby's nearly here
Soon you both* can [Snuggle (fabric softener)] and hold your baby near
Those first sweet cries will be [music (cassette tape of lullabyes)] to your ears
Hold your wee one close, tell your baby ["No More Tears" (Johnson's Baby Shampoo)]
To [bond (savings bond; Gold Bond baby powder)] with your new baby, every day and every night
The [keys (baby teething keys)] are love and kindness, soft touches are just right
You can [Pamper (Pampers diapers)] your new bundle, who needs to feel secure.....
Then i would buy each of the items in parenthsies and hold them up as i read her the poem...So what i need is a poem like that one but for a mom of a 2nd kid, not a "new" mom...she already has one child! THANKS!!

Babies are Angels that fly to the earth,
their wings disappear at the time of their birth
one look in their eyes and we're never the same
They're part of us now and that part has a name
That part is your heart and a bond that won't sever
our Babies are Angels, we love them forever.

Two tiny feet
That wave in the air
Two tiny hands
That tug at your hair
Cute bottom for patting
Adorable face
A bundle of joy
To love and embrace
Precious one,
So small,
So sweet
Dancing in
on angel feet
Straight from Heaven's
brightest star
What a miracle
you are!
When a baby enters this world,
into your life
A baby can make you forget your
worries and strife.
It really doesn't matter whether
it's a girl or a boy
A baby will melt your heart and bring you joy!
So shower a baby with love,
every single day.
Show a baby you truly care-
there's so many ways.
For with a blink of an eye, time
will fly out the door-
and your precious baby, won't
be a baby anymore!!
Welcome New Baby Poems - A Prayer for my cute baby to God
Little baby on the way,
Getting bigger every day,
Kicking mommy here and there,
God please listen to our prayer.
Keep our baby safe and strong,
Let his time with us be long,
Help us teach him right form wrong,
And we shall praise thee all day long.
This little on, though not yet here,
Is loved so much, has grown quite dear.
Delivery time is growing near,
That's why we pray our plea you'll hear.
Please help up Lord, we pray to Thee
With thankful heart, on bended knee,
To raise this child that he might be,
A happy child because of me.

New Baby Poems : A Baby is a Miracle
This little tiny baby
Was sent from God above
To fill our hearts with happiness
And touch our lives with love
He must have known
We'd give our all
And always do our best
To give our precious baby love
And be grateful and so blessed
FINGERPRINTS.
Sometimes you get discouraged,
because I am so small
And leave my little fingerprints
On furniture and walls.
But everyday I'm growing
And soon will be so tall
That all these little fingerprints
Will be difficult to recall.
So here's a little handprint
That you can put away
So you will know how my fingers looked
On this special day.

MY DEAR CHILD.
You are the poem
I dreamed of writing
the masterpiece
I longed to paint.
You are the shining star
I reached for In my
ever hopeful quest
for life fulfilled..
You are my child.
Now with all things
I am blessed.

IF A CHILD....
If a child lives with criticism,
he learns to condemn.
If a child lives with hostility,
he learns to fight.
If a child lives with ridicule,
he learns to be shy.
If a child lives with shame,
he learns to feel guilty.
If a child lives with tolerance,
he learns to be patient.
If a child lives with encouragement,
he learns confidence.
If a child lives with praise,
he learns to appreciate.
If a child lives with fairness,
he learns justice.
If a child lives with security,
he learns to have faith.
If a child lives with approval,
he learns to like himself.
If a child lives with acceptance and friendship,
He learns to find love in the world.

The Sweetest Gift
One day a mother went to a prison
To see an erring but precious son.
She told the warden how much she loved him.
It did not matter what he had done.
She did not bring to him a parole or pardon free.
Brought no gold, no pomp or style to see.
It was a halo bright, sent down from heaven's light,
The sweetest gift -- a mother's smile.
She left a smile you can remember.
She's gone to heaven, from heartaches free.
Those walls around you could never change her.
You were her baby, and 'ere will be.
i hope you might find these useful!
