However, if you just don’t have the time for everybody this gives you a polite dividing line as to who gets baby shower thank you notes and who does not.First, send out the cards to people who sent gifts, but were not present when the gift was opened. Then, if you have time, send baby shower thank you notes to people who live far away.Everybody expects one of those baby shower thank you notes , however, there is a loophole.

Six Steps to Complete Your Baby Shower Thank You Notes the Easy Way
Writing and sending baby shower thank you notes may seem time consuming. Do what every new mom should do—Take it easy! Here’s how to finish your thank you cards without setting aside an entire afternoon or day. What Mom or Mom-to-Be has that much free time?
2) On the flipside of each gift tag, write a nice comment about the gift. If you threw away all the tags, you can just put a note in each envelope saying who sent what and something nice about it. (ex. Carol-stork diaper basket-cute sailor hat on stork) This insures you do not have to waste time looking up the correct spelling of the giver’s name or struggle to remember who gave you what. 3) Place the labeled gift tags or notes in corresponding envelopes. 4) Print out this thank you note template found here or copy these samples of baby shower thank you notes (Here are some fill-in-the-blank gift and thanks for coming sample notes for you to use, too.) 5) Carry a few envelopes and blank cards with you. When you are waiting at that next doctor’s appointment, fill out a few. Other good times to do this include, waiting for food at a restaurant, in between cycles of laundry, when you can’t sleep, and during commercials (instead of holding the fast forward button on the Tivo). The great thing about doing a few or just one at a time is that it keeps your handwriting neat. 6)Do not wait to mail your baby shower thank you cards or notes from home all at once. Just put them in the mail. This way you will “have to” hurry up and finish the rest soon, and your stack will be smaller. If you opt to delegate this task, insure it is somebody you can rely on.

Bonus delegation tip--Make DAD be in charge of writing the thank you notes, and the two of you sign them. Convenient explanations: My knuckles are sore and swollen. He wants to be an active Daddy.
