So we plan to tell our family at Christmas and I figured this is most likely my last baby and my last chance to do something cutesy. Suggestions?

we did a u/s pic in a frame (digital frame)
i wanted to do a big brother t-shirt for Q with this pregnancy but didn't have a family event like christmas to do it at. so we didn't do that.

I'll be almost 6 weeks at Christmas. I just won't have an ultrasound to frame or anything.

I thought this was a cute picture for an announcment. You could frame it and wrap it as a gift.

When we told family about DD at Christmas, we wrapped up a onesie and let them open it.....Maybe you do do that and put #3 on it.

That is one of the ideas that crossed my mind actually.
I had finished up most of the gift cards a day or two before I found out and wrapped all the gifts. :laugh:

I didn't get a chance for a cutesy reveal - I had to explain why I wasn't drinking (and my FIL is a BIG drink pusher). However, my aunt and uncle told my grandparents they were expecting by wrapping up a pair of baby shoes to be used as Christmas ornaments. They lost the baby, but we all think of the baby because the shoe "ornaments" are still treasured year after year. And its been over 20 years already!

With this PG, I had my sister take of picture of me, DH, Matthew and Lucas and I sent it to all of the family and wrote "The FIVE of us are having a great time" We were on a trip at the time.

For my frst one, i wrote up a certificate and gave it to them in an envelope. It had a picture of a digital test. Told them "We hope you like it, it'll be hard to return, but if you don't like it, we'll just keep it for our selves"...my mm looked bewildered and then started crying. I was about 4 weeks i believe...
This time i will be 7 weeks and i will either take a digital and hang it on the tree like an ornament...or i have made an ornament(a HUGE ornament) that just says Due August 12th...7 Weeks pregnant. Might just hang it up and see if anyone notices it!
