Many odd thoughts on announcements
You may choose to prepare invitations that ask for guests to provide advice for the expectant parents, invitations in the shape of a baby bassinette, bib or blocks. You can also go green by sending the baby shower invitations electronically. And, if you are of a literary bent of mind, the invitations can be worded with a poem. The poems can be silly or sentimental, your choice. They are a fun way to convey your friendship and love for the mother to be.
