What is the one thing we as moms always dread wasting our money on (or is it just me?)?  DIAPERS!  i like giving diapers at baby showers and watching the sigh of relief as the mommy opens it.  She knows that is one less trip to the store just for diapers…again.  The only problem with giving diapers is that while practical, it is not very personable or unique (you can admit it, we always want our gift to stand out).  In comes Lil Baby Cakes and their adorable baby shower gifts to the rescue.  The diaper cakes would also be great if you are the one hosting.  How amazing would one of these look as the center piece?  It can double as your gift so you are actually multitasking.  What woman doesn’t like a little multitasking?

Each diaper cake is made with Pamper Swaddlers diapers.  If the mommy-to-be is choosing cloth diapers, all designs are available with cloth diapers upon special request.  They range from a mini 2 tiered cake, all the way up to a magnificent, show stopping 6 tiered cake.  Every diaper cake also comes with baby supplies and/or a snugly, stuffed Gund animal.  The best part, ALL diapers are usable!  If you don’t see exactly what you are looking for, let Candy and her team create the perfect diaper cake for you to get all the ooh and aahs.

So you heard someone else is bringing the diaper cake, and now you have no idea what to do (after a few tears and unsuccessful convincing she bring perhaps some adorable clothes).  Go back to Lil Baby Cakes and take a look at the other baby gifts they offer.  Does the daddy-to-be have hopes of a golf prodigy?  They have the sweetest My First Golf Bag.  Maybe daddy has dreams of fishing trips (all the fun stuff isn’t just for mommy.  daddy needs to feel a part of it all too, right?), how about My First Tackle Box.  These are too cute!  How can you resist saying no?  We all know how important a good relationship with daddy is.  It starts from the beginning and what a better way help daddy along in his sometimes awkward journey of parenthood.  These would be perfect especially if the gender is unknown.  Every little girl likes to be involved in whatever daddy is.  i’m a girl and i like fishing:)

Lil Baby Cakes has been in business since 1998 and has a “Word of Honor” guarantee.  Here is what they say “Our top priority is for you to be thrilled with your purchase. But if for any reason you aren’t (though we can’t imagine why you wouldn’t be!) we’ll cheerfully refund your money or replace your diaper cake.You have our word on it.”  Now you have no excuse not showing up with a sumptuous gift.

Do you want to be the friend with a stand out present at the baby shower?  i have found the cutest newborn outfit that is sure to get a laugh and be used….newborn baby scrubs.  They are just as comfy as the grown up version.  The shirt pocket has the perfect place to write down the “specs”.  It would be really cute to have your hospital visitors write a word they want to speak into the new little one, and sign their name with the included permanent pen.  It is large enough to fit a newborn up to 10 pounds (if the baby is that big, my hat goes off to the mama!!!)  The scrubs come in surgical blue or baby pink and arrive in a gift envelope with a display window.
