(Sister-in-law, if you're reading, pretty please stop now)
Okay, so I have a question that I'd love all of your input about.TBF thought it would be a great idea (and I do too) if he brought a gift or two for my brother, the father-to-be.
Please note, this is a very laid back couples shower on a Saturday evening that I'm helping host and I am also of course bringing a gift for my sister-in-law, the mommy-to-be.
We went to the Land of Nod yesterday (which was hilarious because when we walked in they totally looked at us like we were expecting - you know the awww looks when they greeted us) and we stumbled upon saw some great items like:



"This is so they won't have to put the baby down on something GROSS."

To quote TBF, "this is something a dad would enjoy carrying around." (Not that regular baby accessories aren't something to be proud of.)
What do you think? Is it a good idea if TBF brings along a gift for my brother, the father-to-be to the shower?
I personally think so, I'm hoping to get a positive response because I think my brother would really appreciate it. However, I want to ensure it's okay before he goes ahead and pulls the trigger and purchases it.
Thanks in advance and happy Monday!

I think that is a wonderful idea! I bet your brother would appreciate being thought of!
I think that would be awesome! The dad's always seem to be forgotten, so that would be a good way to acknowledge him too!
Definitely! Something special that the new dad and baby can enjoy together. Its a great idea! And props to TBF for going shopping with you!
I think it's a wonderful idea to give the father-to-be a baby gift!

I think it's a really cool idea. I'm just wondering if other guys (boyfriends, husbands) are coming. If so, you might want to give them a heads up to bring a dad gift. They might feel awkward otherwise, like they weren't in the loop or something.
I think it's a fantastic idea ~ thoughtful, and sure to be well received. Go for it! :)
