Wondering what to write on a baby shower cake? Here’s the story of what I chose to write:
A couple of my co-workers were pregnant and due around the same time. When we had a baby shower for them, I was the lucky person instructed chosen to order the cake.
At the bakery, they asked what I wanted written on the cake.
“Good luck, you’ll need it!” popped into my mind.
No, I thought.
I can’t write that.
I settled on “Welcome Little Ones!”
But what if I had had them write out my first thought? The cake would look a little something like this:
And, as long as I’m being honest, I know of several more phrases that I REALLY want to put on a baby shower cake. They are:
You don’t need that $600 stroller!
Sleep is for the weak!
Your husband doesn’t look like he’s going to be helpful!
Watch out for the dreaded diaper blowout!
Breastfeeding hurts for at least two weeks!
There you have it. What I would write on a baby shower cake. If you could be honest, what would you write on a baby shower cake?

“shower now”
honestly, that’s all I wanted half the time after new born. A good long hot shower — without a baby screaming on the bathroom floor or having to sing Hush Little Baby through the shampoo suds.
