My parents are throwing us the shower and buying a rocking chair for us. My mom also got us a bunch of outfits and blankets and stuff already. My MIL - who knows - she isnt a big spender, so we will see.

DH's parents are going to buy the nursery furniture. My parents are buying the bassinet and glider/ottoman. My mom and MIL are also paying for the shower together.

I'm pretty sure that none of them will get us anything "special" but I'm sure they will all chip in for my shower. It would be nice if my ILs and my mom went in on LO's furniture. We'll see about that.

A cple days after we told MIL we were pregnant she said they were buying us the furniture--which I was kind of shocked, like who thinks of that haha and happy lol Chat Icon

My parents and in laws will likely split the shower.

And I am sure my parents will get us plenty, as they always do. We are so lucky.

My parents already said they will buy the furniture.

MIL said she wants to get us a glider.

I am pretty sure my mom will be doing the shower hosting.

We are beyond blessed.

Baby #1 - IL's bought the nursery furniture and mattress.
My mom paid for the shower ( she went all out.. catering hall... extras, expensive favors, floral centerpieces.. it was insane), got us the stroller, car seat, and then bought EVERY SINGLE THING left on the registry after the shower.

Baby #2 - Mom got us the crib, bedding, exersaucer, bouncer, and new stroller. IL's bought the $$$ glider I wanted and gave us a very very generous check to cover whatever else we needed since they had no idea what to buy.

Baby #3 - We don't need much but the parents still won't stop. We are still using crib #2 and crib #1 is getting on the old side so m IL's offered to buy us yet another crib.
My mom wants to buy a double stroller and anything else I email her the link to. Chat Icon

I thank god for our amazing families every. single. day. Chat Icon

Sadly, I have no in-laws. But my Mom and Dad bought our entire nursery furniture set, are getting some sort of baseboard covers for the nursery and my Mom and sister are hosting my shower. I say this is one spoiled and very lucky baby!
