Hello everyone. We had discussed this WAAAAAYYYY back in June and decided to wait till a lot of us were in our 20 weeks. Well, that's about now! 
So, I would like to know who would like to be in on this. Here is what will be required of you:
- Spend a minimum of $20 on a gift for your partner and ship it to them.
- Sign up on Elfster and join our exchange group if you want to join. (if you are in Canada or Australia and want to join in, please check the ***below).
----sign up deadline is by September 13th on Elfster. exchange date is by November 4th.
----Don't forget you will need to include your address when signing up on the Elfster website.
This is so your partner knows where to send the gift.
- When your partner is assigned to you on the 13th, check out their wishlist's or bio to figure out what to buy them for their shower gift.
- Send out your gift by November 4th.
- Optional: Feel free to get creative: wrap up the gift, include a congrats card, candy, any extras you want... Just have fun with it! And, you can stay anonymous in the exchange, or feel free to let your partner know you are. It's up to you!
After you've signed up on Elfster feel free to add items to your wishlist on Elfster. Since I've already registered for my upcoming baby showers I just put links to my registries. Check out my Elfster profile to see what I did (You'll have to login to see it). I also included a link to my PW bio. I added questions to my bio for the exchange. This way my partner can get to know a little more about me. Please add these questions and any others to your bio and answer them for your partner to learn more about you:
- What are your favorite colors?
- What are your favorite sports/ teams and are you into sports?
- How do you like to spend your free time?
- What (if you have one) is your nursery theme?
- Are you having a boy or a girl and what will the name be?
- Favorite candy (or craving):
- Do you collect anything?
- Do you have any allergies?
- Anything else we should know about you?
Please let me know if any of you have any questions.
***If you are in Canada or Australia and want to join in, we can do a separate exchange for you guys. I think there are a couple ladies from Aus, and a couple from Canada. If you want in and are from outside the US, post that you would like to exchange and we'll see if anyone else in your country signs up too. That will help with any shipping cost issues!
Or, we can see who doesn't mind sending to Canada and Aus and who does. I have a way to change who can be partners with who on Elfster.
