I thought baby #2 wasn't supposed to get a shower?
Dude, what would you do with all the stuff? Seriously I find it very stressful finding an eco-friendly way to get rid of all our baby stuff.
I tried giving it to friends who were having kids but they wanted to buy new stuff for their kids (and hey, all of ours was secondhand when we got it so I could understand). Most of it cannot be donated, at least not to traditional places like Goodwill and Council Thrift. I finally found a local halfway house that I hear will take strollers, pack 'n plays, etc. And is there any way to donate a used breast pump? Those things are spendy, there's got to be someone who needs it who can't buy it any other way?
I am not a soprano, and will have to be content with "Son of a Preacher Man" and "Black Velvet" and the like.
Which are fun, but your lower range means you can sing Guns 'n' Roses - belting galore.
I opened gifts at my baby shower. Can't remember what I did for my wedding - actually, I can't remember if I even HAD a wedding shower. Huh.

Burrell-- how about a women's shelter? A lot of times those women have to run out with nothing and so many of them seem to have babies.
Well, you've managed to replace "Fish Heads" with "Welcome to the Jungle" as earworm of today, so thank you.

I'm a mezzo which, thankfully, allows me a lot of Dusty. "I Only Wanna Be With You", "You Don't Own Me" and "Anyone Who Had a Heart" are particular faves.
There's always "Twist and Shout" for getting a crowd going in that Ferris Bueller back when Matthew Broderick wasn't such a pansy sort of way.
I'm also thinking of Cheap Trick.
Surrender
or
I Want You to Want Me
Oooh! Billy Idol, Dancin' With Myself?

I tried that with some of our baby stuff (not a breast pump, though) and found what Burrell said was sadly true. Outside of clothes and things, they don't want any equipment that might have been recalled, or didn't have all of the isntructions with it, etc.

Ooh! Either of these would be AWESOME!
