Evites first.

We need emails, Michelle. And what theme should we go with, invitations-wise?

http://www.evite.com/app/invitations/gallery/templates.do?theme=Baby_Shower

For the party itself, it is called hello, baby! shower and we were thinking mint green and pale yellow for the colors. Do you like polka dots or stripes? Or bumblebees or sailboats? We definitely want nice & cute floral arrangements, as well as balloons and lights strewn across the living room ceiling. As well as the traditional baby shower games... Too much? I think it'd be way adorable. And to play Father of the Bride 2 in the background. Oh, and MEN BE THE BABYSITTERS!

An update

Okay, so...

Jan and Michelle are not renewing their vows just yet. Instead, they are having a THIRD boy! To celebrate this unexpected blessing, let's throw a delightful baby shower. We are shooting for the end of February, possibly Saturday the 28th or the first of March. What does everybody think? Can we plan something spectacular and well put-together in a month's time? Ohhhh yeah.
