Baby shower host gifts


Ok so i'm kind of stuck in a rut. My mom and my nana (grandmother) and my sister are all doing my baby shower together. My mom is the main host with my Nana who's second (we're doing the shower at her place)

I have no idea what to get them! They are all family and I know what all there tastes are but i'm so clueless. I can't do a spa day because between the 4 of us thats going to cost me a whole friggen paycheque. I don't want to give a gift basket. It's my mom.. lol I don't want to be cheap! What would you all suggest?

I thought the point of a baby shower was that you got gifts?

Instead of doing a spa certificate you could get them a certificate to have their nails/hair done or even a massage (if not to expensive). You could also do something like get them a certificate to a nice restaurant and/or a movie if that's something they'd like so they can have a nice night out.

Well yes marley the baby shower is to receive gifts but apparently it's apporopriate and "good etiquette" to give your host or "host" a gift for ther hard work...
