Write a poem or short verse on the front of the baby shower invitation that mentions that the baby is going to be a boy. A simple invitation could just read "Oh Boy!" or "It's a boy!" Rhyming poems can make use of the fact that "boy" and "joy" rhyme. For example,
"Oh what fun!
Oh what joy!
[Mother's name] is having a
Sweet baby boy!"

Write an initial greeting inside the invitation that lets guests know they are invited to a baby shower for the expectant mother and her baby boy. It could be as simple as "Come to a baby shower for [Mother's name] to prepare her for the arrival of her little boy." A poetic greeting could say, "A baby boy is on his way, so join us for his mommy's special day!"
