Baby Shower...help

Got an invite in the mail for baby shower...husband former boss whose still a good friend of ours. I had knitted a baby a blanket and had given to the mother prior to the baby shower announcement. Anyway, the mother is registered at "Baby R us" and I don't want to go by the wish list. Makes me feel weird having other people know how much I spent on a gift. I still want to gift something. But since my husband is now no longer working due to medical reasons, we're down to one income and I'm watching every penny. Please recommend what type of gift I should get. I'm horrible at gift giving. But we truely are thankful for the friendship the boss and his wife has given us. I guess we want a gift that is priceless. Got to start plan on what gift to give when the baby is born. I haven't realize how much money is involved in celebrations.

A box of pampers at Toys r us will cost $29.99 (not sure how many diapers in a box for size 1).

In the grocery stores here in NJ a box of around 40 diapers in a size 1 cost about 10.00. Luvs is usually the cheapest in the better brands, but "Fitti" , and store brand diapers run even less then that.
