Time to Plan A Shower

We are 78 days away from meeting Charlotte and I've been told it's time to plan a shower. There are a few glitches with this timeline: it will be snowy soon (even more so in Schenectady where my mom will be throwing the shower) and this is not a time that we should travel (Charlotte and I or anyone else, considering the weather). So, we have about three months to plan a shower and my mom wants to be sure it's exactly what I want (thanks, mom!). I figure the best place to start is a theme. Here are my ideas for themes, you can help by choosing which you think is the best idea.



Apple of Our Eye: obviously an apple theme- apple pie, green and red colored decor, apple-themed favors.





Cute as a Bee: I was thinking a tea party theme, tea with honey, black and yellow colored decor, honey as a favor, the menu would be desserts only. It could be a nice warm theme for the weather that will get people thinking of Spring!






A Baby is Brewing: this is my and John's favorite theme. We've been calling her "the bean" since we first saw her in the ultrasound and that inspired the name of the blog, so it just seems fitting. It would be a coffee party, desserts and sweets. This theme makes favor ideas pretty easy (custom coffee or desserts for people to take with them).





Snug as a Bug: Another warm theme (I think the weather is getting to me...). Little bugs are cute. I have no idea what this theme would entail for aspects of a party, but it sounds cute. :-)
