I’ve dealt with a lot of pregnant women in my family, as most of my cousins have had babies. While only some went through the smug pregnant woman phase (as seen in the video below), they all had a baby shower before the birth of their first child. One of the worst was a baby shower for my cousin’s girlfriend. She was pregnant with a baby that may or may not have been my cousin’s (shhh). I missed out on the shower, but according to my mom and sister in law they had a KEG and JELLO SHOTS at the shower.
JELLO SHOTS. KEG OF BEER. BABY SHOWER. WOW.
Now, in all fairness, not all baby showers in my family are ridiculous. I threw a very nice (I hope) baby shower for my lovely cousin T and her twins at my parents’ house over the summer for 35 adults and 12 kids, complete with crab cakes and without jello shots and silly baby shower games. Luckily, T was not one of the smug ones.
With such a large family there are bound to be some duds, but cousins like T make the others totally bearable. I’d put up with a thousand crazies anyday in order to have TT part of my family.
Oh, and happy birthday today, TT.
