What should I get the person who is hosting my baby shower?

Two people are hosting a baby shower for me, and I would love to "Thank" them with a small Hostess gift, WHat woud you suggest?

What should I get the person who is hosting my baby shower?
A nice gift would be monogrammed stationary for both of them or even bubble bath, etc. The key would be to buy them something they wouldn't normally buy themselves. If they have children, then something "Mom" related would be great. One gift I have seen that I loved was the mother to be took a picture with each hostess and then 3 days later in the mail the hostesses each received a beautiful silver frame engraved "thank you" with the date of the shower and the picture of that hostess and the guest of honor---could do this even cheaper by not using silver!
Reply:A gift card of her favorite restaurant or favorite place. Or a gas gift card, now a days everyone needs them.
Reply:nothing - just accept the honour gracefully and gratefully.
Reply:Flowers delivered in a nice vase that can be kept.
Reply:I don't know if you or them drink, but a bottle of moet is always a good one. My friends girlfriend had a college graduation party about a month ago and I just gave her a card and a bottle of moet. $50. I wanted to give her a flower too, but it seems kind of fishy giving one of your best friend's girlfriend a rose. But I gave the first answer a thumbs up for the originality that can be highly apreciated by anyone with a car. That one is a real good idea. It is the thought that counts. And that was a good one.
Reply:giftcards are the best thing to get...if not then take them both to a nice restaurant and treat them to a nice dinner.
Reply:A thank you card and a gift basket of some nice goodies would work. Think about the type of stuff that they like and go with that.
Reply:Since these women must be close to you to be hosting your baby shower I am sure that you want to get them something extra special. Of course you will write them a note complimenting the shower and their hard work but also thanking them at the shower by giving them something would be lovely. Since you know them best try to give something that each of them will really like. I love the idea of the photo being taken with each of them at the shower then framing it! Of course though that is something that you would give after the shower, so if you would like to honor them at the shower then I say buy something personal that really thanks them. You probably already know what they really love so just follow your instincts! Congratultions on expecting!
Reply:i'm sure they do not expect anything from you but you could get them some flowers or something
Reply:How about a hug, a kiss on their nose and 'thanks'?
