I've never been to one. What do people do there? Isn't this traditionally a women get-together sort of thing? The shower is being thrown for someone from work who's having a baby, but it will be held at another coworkers home. Since I got an invitation, I take it that other people from work, particularily those from my dept., also got one. I don't know if I'll go, but if not I'd still like to give a gift since the mother-to-be is someone I know and talk with at work. I did a little research and gift baskets usually pop up as popular gifts. I also like the idea of a gift card from maybe Target. But how much should I give? I don't want the card to be too cheap or too much. I also like the idea of a spa gift card. I hear that people give diapers, but what sort of gift is that even though it will come in handy. Maybe baby clothes will do.

So what do people do at baby showers? I'm not one to go to these social events. I suck at small talk and can be socially awkward amongst people at a social event. I'll have to find out what sort of food will be served!
