Baby Shower
Augh, I am a little frustrated and it seems silly. It’s my baby shower tomorrow and yes its no surprise! but, I have a few gripes, I have been monitoring my registry online to prepare myself for the things that people arent going to buy so I will know what I still need to get. It turns out all the really important things didn’t get bought for the shower including the bath tub, tummy time mat and baby monitor and instead lots of things I have tons of got bought instead ie… blankets. I am so frustrated!!!
Another thing that bothers me is this was suppose to be a no children baby shower as a few of the elderly guests are impatient with children so it was thought it would be best of they ( meaning children) didn’t come. Now there are 5 children coming, one baby boy 6 months old, two 3 year olds and one 4 year old and a 12 year old boy who is my cousin and is VERY immature for his age ( he still cries if he doesn’t get hsi way, well I guess he will be crying tomorrow!). I am worried about the kids tomorrow messing with the decorations,presents etc….. the 12 years old boy already told his mom that he is going to help me open gifts, I am so worried for tomorrow that I will have to tell him NO because if I let him do it and then I have to let the other 3 do it. I just wanted to enjoy it for myself as all my christmas gifts this year and birthday gifts have all been for the baby! Plus I am fully capable of opening my own gifts despite my torn ligament in my rib area.
I was really looking forward to my baby shower as this is a special one, my great grandma is still alive and in my family you only get one baby shower. I know is sounds selfish and silly but I just wanted to enjoy myself and now I have to think about 5 kids, 1 who is to old to be helping open gifts and is a boy at an all girl event.
Has anyone else been disappointed that their baby shower wasn’t what they thought it would be???
