Is it appropriate to have a baby shower for him? I'm the unofficial party planner at work (birthdays, holiday parties, baby showers, retirement, etc.) so it's sorta up to me to get things organized and plan.
Most of the rest of the family lives 70 to 120 miles away from the party. I feel sorry that that is the case because its always nice to celebrate a new life, but how far is reasonable to travel for a baby shower? Is she right though? I agree it would be more for her than the cousin/baby mama.

Anonymous if you want a gift grab, do a baby shower otherwise email and congratulate when the birth announcement comes At the babys babtism you can give a gift, but only if you are invited report 07/24/2011 22:21
Are you the person organizing the baby shower for thanksgiving weekend? If so, I would not do this. You are on a tight timeline to find a venue and if you wait a few more weeks to get RSVPs you might find yourself out of luck for anything decent.
Even when I’m hosting my parents and throwing my cousin a baby shower, it’s this that this that what about this that can we do can we have. And they have NOTHING to do!
I was originally friends with the Mom, and introduced her to my Friend. Mom’s family threw her a surprise baby shower for her second baby, and I was invited but Friend was. Friend cut me off at the pass and was like, “I’m sorry you weren’t invited. Her mom found me on a Facebook comment and invited me.”
