Re: Creative Ideas

we announced our news during the holidays and bought frames that said "I love grandma" or "I love grandpa" and because we were SO early that we didnt have a sono pic yet, I printed up inserts that said "Custom Order Under Development" on top, "Expected Delivery: August 2011" on the bottom and a picture of a stork carrying a baby in the middle. We wrapped them up and gave them as the last gift and had the grandma and grandpa to be open them at the same time. It was lots of fun!

We told my parents and sister with a shirt for my little niece (she's the youngest) that said "I'm gonig to be a big cousin". It took them a little to figure it out lol.

Re: Creative Ideas

Had my mom, stepdad & brother over for dinner. Told them I wanted a picture, we posed and I had my DH put the camera on the video setting ahead of time.. I said "Say Cheese" as he started recording and pretending to take the pic, they said Cheese.. then I said "Say _______'s Pregnant"......

So we have their reaction on video Chat Icon

We printed up menus and went out to dinner with the parents. DH gave the menus to the maitre'd to hand out. It was fun.

We wrote the item with a little description of the item (since it was taken from an actual baby shower menu online).

Special Delivery Chicken 14.95

Green Bean Bundles of Joy 7.95

Bringing Home Baby Carrots 6.95

2 am Feeding Snack Bars 9.95

(Insert Real Names here) Bun in the Oven Special Priceless
