new additions

I too am delighted to have a new member joining us (new to the blog).  I am looking forward to hearing her opinions and it will add another younger member of the family.  And since she lives in Gainesville, which is a college oriented town) and has traveled and lived in Europe she has a different background which may give us a different perspective on matters.  So welcome aboard.

On the matter of multiple baby showers, I don't think Tara had one for the first baby so this is a new thing for her.  But as she said, it's more in the nature of getting the family together for a good bye and baby shower.  And since the first one was a girl and this one is a boy, she has gobs of pink frilly outfits but no baby boy type things.

Usually multiple baby showers depend on the length of time between babies (or at least that used to be the criteria).  If it's been long enough that the mom no longer has all the stuff that you want and need with a new baby then have a shower.  If you still have everything, then maybe just have a "welcome new addition" type of party and bring something if you want, maybe a treat for the mom or dad, i.e., a babysitting voucher, a card for a manicure.
