I'm feeling kind of dumb to be having a shower since I am a member of the Sunshine Committee that is in charge of shower throwing and it says right on our list of regulations: "showers for first babies only."
But look at that cute invitation! And heaven knows I'm gonna need all the clothes and diapers and blankets I can get. Not to mention that I'm going to be having a yard sale to raise funds for a triple stroller the cheapest of which I have found will still cost me over $300. So yes, I need help. I guess I just feel unworthy of any offered charity.
In my next life I intend to be a much better person in general--maybe then I won't be so unworthy.

I wish I could go and shower you with ...gift certificates for my business. That is the only gift I give these days.:) My ward loves baby showers. The last two I went were for a mom having her four and a mom having her fifth. These are your first boys, and you're getting two so I think you are right, take all the charity you can get. :O) People love giving it!
Megan-It's not charity! People are excited for you, and it's not everyday you get two babies for the price of one...so that right there is worth a party:) You will need a lot of stuff. I think twins are the exception to every "rule." They obviously didn't feel like the rule applied. So if they felt good about giving you a shower, you should enjoy it!You deserve it! Mel :)
I know how you feel, when we were moving here I was prego with E'en and my old ward got the crazy idea to throw me a surprise shower. I was kind of weirded out because it was my 4th kid and I had already had 2 boys. But in your case you need it, I didn't. Twins are EXPENSIVE especially when they are little and you are using 20-30 diapers a day. So don't feel guilty, you need all the help you can get and You deserve it. People always say 2 for the price of 1 but it's actually buying 2 of things you wouldn't need 2 of if you only had 1 baby. Like clothes for example, you probably wouldn't buy 1 baby 2 of the same outfit. Anyway I'll stop talking now.
I'm not giving you nothing, even if I get invited to three of your showers. It's against my principles to give gifts for mothers who've previously birthed.
I say get all the free stuff you can! You need it AND deserve it!
MEGAN! First I must say, WOW you are having twins. I can imagine that's a truck load of emotions. I admire you and if anyone deserves anything it's you. I am so glad you found me. I am new to this blogging stuff and love that I can reconnect with long lost friends. =) Good luck and stay in touch!
Ps. IT still makes me pee my pants.
Cute...that is so sweet! Hey, you need to post a picture of yourself, I want to see this "hugeness" that you speak of....personally I don't believe it.
