Last month we had the opportunity to team up with Pampers and their Little Miracles Mission on Mission #1: “Pay-it-forward” by congratulating and/or offering support to an expectant mother with a gift or surprise gesture. Once at least 2,500 people pledged to carry out the mission, Pampers promised to respond by throwing 1,000 baby showers to expectant mother’s nationwide.

Pampers more than reached their goal and now they are carrying out their side of Mission #1 in an effort to celebrate babies nationwide! During the month of May and June, Pampers has thrown, and is continuing to throw baby showers all over the United States! Check out the brief video below and see the baby shower that Pampers put together for Cleveland, Ohio couple, Sergeant First Class Sam & Cindy Wolford…..

Now that Mission #1 is being carried out, Pampers has introduced Mission #2 just in time for Father’s Day: To make a dad’s first Father’s Day one he’ll never forget. The mission is to help give dads the time he and his baby deserve to bond. As it’s so critical to his baby’s development. Just by running some of his errands, covering his late meeting at work or helping him out with some chores at home can make room for some precious quality time with his little miracle.

20110614-082226.jpg

How Can You Get Involved in Mission #2? Simply head over to the Pampers Facebook Page and pledge to help a special Dad you know (or perhaps, don’t know). Once Pampers has received at least 4,000 pledges to Mission #2, Pampers will respond by throwing special Father’s Day Cook-out’s to Dad’s all over the country, allowing Dad and baby that special time they need to bond! In addition, when you commit to help, you will be given the opportunity to enter to WIN Free diapers and wipes for a year!

  1. I actually helped throw a really fun baby shower last year for a young lady who had married & moved from Alaska to sunny California. We invited lots of people, and even got her mom from Alaska there (she showed up a day earlier to surprise at the party). Lots of people showed up, even ones that didn’t really know her, but knew her husband just to welcome her & support her. We had the cutest little baby cake, a “very pretty in pink” theme. We played a fun game where everyone said something off the wall/little known about themselves & then the Mom to be had to go back & try to remember who went with what story. It was hilarious for everyone & a great ice breaker. We had a great time helping someone most of us barely knew, and now have a great friend (& cute little girl) as well.

  5. One of my favorite things to do for a shower is to make punch! It’s Frugal and
    Simple! Two gifts in one!

    First you’ll need a punch bowl, I used a plastic bucket (something mom can use
    later for storage) and a few rubber duckies!
    Also:
    cups
    laddle

    3 2 liter’s of Ginger Ale
    Kool aid Packet (blue)
    1 cup Sugar or just use the already pre-mix
    Bottle of White Grape Juice
    Sherbert

    Mix the 1/2 Kool aid and white grape Juice in the bucket, add ice to keep it
    cold. then drop in the sherbert by spoonfuls 5-6 depending on your bucket size
    Pour the Ginger ale of it and watch it fizz up! Place the Duckies on top and it
    looks like a bathtub!

    You can continue to add sherbert and Ginger ale as people drink it and the fizz
    dies down! Don’t forget to bring a little dish soap and sponge to wash out
    after and give bucket/duckies to mom as another shower gift!

  8. I would love this so I can throw a shower for my wonderful sister. I don’t have a lot to spend, and she deserves the best. She has been so good to me. She threw me a shower when I had my son and it was so special! She has also helped us huge by watching our son so my husband and I can work. I want to give her a great shower! I think I would do a nice brunch with family and friends. Probably quiche, fruit salad (in carved out cradle out of watermelon), my special breakfast pizza, and of course a cute cake in pink and brown colors! Her theme is pink and brown so id go crazy with this theme! I will make a diaper cake, and have a little clothes line up with cute girl clothes hanging up. We’d play a couple games and just enjoy the day! Id also love to be able to buy her bedding for her! Thanks so much for the chance! My sister deserves this for sure!

  9. I would definitely come up with a unique theme like a garden or barbecue baby shower for the summer. Create fun invites related to that theme. I would also have food and lots of decorations related to the theme and come up with unique games. Let my creative juices flow.

  14. I want to throw one for my BFF due in 3 weeks!
    I want to include Fruit Baksets, awesome fun games, BBQ all the way! Ooooh I can be super creative 😉 Thanks for the chance!
    Lots of outdoor activities!

  16. I’d throw the baby shower party for my sister in law and get everyone’s hubby and SO to participate. Men are usually excluded in the event, it would be interesting to see how they come up with shower gifts and have fun time chatting and playing games together.

  22. I would throw one for my friend. Decorations would include brown and pink, lime green balloons. For food- I would do a fun Hawaain feast- pulled pork, rice, veggies, meat, hawaain punch with sprite and serbet ice cream. Lots of gifts and fun games. She is really deserving of this.

  41. I’m throwing my sister a baby shower in August and could definitely use some cash to help make this day extra special for her. I LOVE to decorate, and I LOVE good food, so I would use some of the money on some special decorations, some for really delicious food, and some on a thoughtful gift for my sister and her baby.

  47. A friend of mine who lost her first (as did I) is now pg again. I would throw her an awesome shower like she did for me with all her fave foods and just so much love.

  52. I have a friend of mine who’s pregnant and a single mom like me, I’d throw her a baby shower. To make it memorable…hmmm well having a baby shower at all would be memorable for her, but I’d get one of those diaper cakes.

    I’m not sure of the theme, I’d have to do some recon to find out what her thoughts are on the room design. I know the bedding she registered for has a zoo animal theme so something along those lines, I think.

    I know she’d be touched by the gesture and very appreciative of the baby shower and gifts!

  53. This baby shower would be for my cousin who just became a kindergarten teacher and her husband has been depolyed. I would start off by making a diaper cake simple yet becoming traditional as a center piece. I would buy tons of onsies for the quests to decorate with fabric paint/pens. I would play the name the poop game (where you melt chocolate in the diapers). I do think it’s nice to have a theme party and I quess the best would be GEAR such as stollers, carriers, carseat bases, seat protectors, toys for stroller/carrier, peapod, stoller covers, ect. Some of the most expensive gear a baby would need and most people wouldn’t think about buying it for a friend/associate.

  63. I would love to throw a surprise baby shower for my niece Katie, who is like a daughter to me. Her and her husband are expecting their first child and we are all so thrilled. I’d love to host the shower and do it in a yellow duckie theme, since yellow is Katies favorite color and since we won’t know the sex of the baby until he or she is born.
    Thanks so much

  67. I would love to throw a shower for my friend who is having a boy. She could really use some boy clothes so I would search for some really good deals on clothes. There is also a discount party store locally where I could get some really cheap great decorations. I would also buy her a nice swing since she doesn’t have one.

    Reply

  69. I would start by inviting all the closest family and friends. The food would be outstanding, as well as desserts for the ladies. I would also make it fun by playing some gameswith the guests, that would get each one of them thinking. I would guve out a door prize or two, and small prizes to the winners, or they could pay it forward to help a charity out. Fun fun fun.I’d also offer raffle tickets for anyone that wanted to bring an extra pack of diapers. This would be for my dearest friend.

  87. I would throw a special party for my niece. Even though she has had her baby now for about six months, she has never had a shower. I would give her a party for Isaiah that she would never forget. Family and friends would be invited, the place decorated in baby blue: streamers, balloons, and new baby toys hanging around. A table loaded with cases of Pampers. My husband would have to think up the menu for the party, since he is my chef.

  101. well, on our block we had someone come over from joplin because they were displaced and she is due- i really do not know her but also know she does not know alot of others either so we could do a housewarming/ congrats for her- helping her since she will not have anything to reuse from her other children. I would have people bring something for the baby and something in a dish for her- like a covered tupperware that she could also keep and reuse after… I think I would just have a teddybear shower and have toys that the brother can play with too. I don’t know her that well since the moving truck is still in the lot parked- yep she recovered some of it but really it would be nice to have some new things and some help from new friends

  102. i am a big gift giver at baby showers ,all moms need so many things big and small!! plus i love shopping for baby items lol
    one way i make showers special is to make a “mom after baby basket”, put new slippers , a gown for the hospital, a brush, and other small items , a few magazines and snacks! the moms really seem to appriciate these baskets and are really inexpensive to make, since i can get razors, pads, deodarents, shampoos , lotions ect., for nothing or close to it!!!

  106. I have a friend who is due to have her 3rd girl in August. Since it is her 3rd child and another girl…I am not sure if anyone is planning on having a shower for her or not.

Many of the girls are on public assistance and cannot afford to eat healthy meals. I’d prepare wholesome, fresh, organic appetizers and snacks (I also teach cooking classes on occasion) . I’d have a diaper cake instead of a regular cake, though I would make an assortment of cupcakes in different varieties.

  220. Honestly, pregnant with a boy this time & due in August; I would LOVE to be able to throw myself a “Baby Blue” party.

    The thought of getting all the great friends & family together to celebrate the surprise addition would be the best ever. There is a great community park nearby; Complete w/a Sprinkler Park and Kiddie playland. Rented pavilions would be the perfect shade on a great summer day to adorn w/BLUE everywhere. Winds will blow the Kitchy Klassic decor of paper lanterns above, gobs of blue balloons, and blue drinks, food, and simply great family fun.

    This is a great contest. And I’d really love the chance to better prepare for this wonderful surprise we’ve been given.

  223. I would throw it for my friends Steve and Ryan who are planning to have their second child in the next couple of years…too late to have it for their current baby! LOL It would be memorable because it would be a shower for guys…gals allowed but the parents to be are dudes! All the games and stuff would be gay-centric and funny/fun!

    Reply

  226. I don’t have any friends or family who are currently pregnant, so I guess I would throw the shower for the next person I know that is! LOL I would make it memorable by NOT having any of those silly shower games, making it open to both genders to participate, making it a vegetarian pot luck, and having everyone fill out a note card with their best parenting advice on it for the parents to keep!

We’d try to make a memorable shower by adding personal touches to everything from the food to the decorations to the venue. Having the shower catered by my sister’s favorite caterer would be the first step and having decorations Martha Stewart would be proud of would be next! She doesn’t know the gender of the baby, so we’d go with neutral colors and theme.

  515. I would certainly throw the shower for my cousin, who is going to be a single mom. It would be owl-themed and I would also get a train ticket for her mom to come visit.
    Thanks for an excellent giveaway!

  530. I cannot remember if I entered this or not, so kindly delete if I made duplicates! Our daughter is pregnant, a summer shower is planned, and to make it extra special, my mom and sisters and friends are making favors (pacifiers our of Good and Plenty candy and Lifesavers), buckets with flower arrangements in them with tiny bottles and rattles inserted, and other goodies. To make it even more special, I am surprising my daughter by having her friend from France be at the shower!

  538. I would like to throw a shower for my sister in law. She is expecting her first child and she has had to quit working. Since, they are broke, I would focus mainly on the best gifts I could get her, but I would also incorporate a bunch of budget friendly elements from showers I have attended, including party games, pot luck buffet and decorations that double as gifts, like a clothesline of baby clothes and a diaper cake.

  565. I’d throw a shower for my best friend as she’s currently expecting her first. I’d definitely want to play those fun shower games, but I’d make it special by getting her a camera to record all those new baby moments!

  570. My friend REALLY needs the cash – she is about 7 weeks from her due date and they are very broke. They tried for 5 years to get pregnant, so this is a MIRACLE.. but I wish they could enjoy it more by being able to buy more of the things they need. I’d give them the cash – straight up! To buy all the little things that baby requires. 🙂
