Baby showers are an early chance to bond with mommy and baby as you show offer your baby shower gifts, support and experience for her new journey.  One thing that we have learned since building this business is to never under estimate the modern mom.  She can truly do it all and that means even taking a larger role in planning her own baby shower.  

Traditionally baby showers are thrown by the mommy-to-be's best friends or mom.  Some mom's even have two: One with co-workers and one with friends and family.  In the past, moms almost always had a chance to sit back a relax while friends and/or family planned the shower.  Mom may have been limited to time place and guest list.  Now moms are taking a bigger role in planning their shower.  From choosing colors and baby shower themes to selecting baby shower games and baby shower favors for their guests.  With mom involved, baby showers are seeing a lot more themes where everything is coordinated, from the tableware to the decoration to the diaper cakes and even mom's dress.    This gives the shower the modern touch and helps the modern mom keep more control over the coordination of her event. 

Still it is the friends and family who must take the reigns and plan the baby shower.  The modern mom can be a diva, and she may want to be involved.   That's OK. work together on theme and coordination and the shower will be fabulous!
