fun ways to announce to family.....

you're having another baby.  A co-worker is pregnant with # 2 and wants to tell her family on christmas but wants a fun way to do it.  With # 1 she got a pic of the sonogram and put it in a grandparents frame for both grandparents. This time she wanted to get a tee shirt that said I'm going to be a big sister but the places she has looked online they will not get here in time for christmas. So do you ladies have any cute ideas she could possibly do?

Re: fun ways to announce to family.....

  • a friend just had her older DD (2) "announce" the new pregnancy by opening a gift at her birthday party that had something to do with having a new baby (I can't remember if it was a frame/pic or a shirt).

    If she wanted to go the shirt route, she could make one with fabric markers and not have to wait for shipping.

  • She could make her own shirt with fabric markers or the iron-on paper you can buy right at Joanns/Michaels/Target. I did that when I got pregnant with Ben - I just took one of Ben's onesies, ironed on the graphic, and it was AWESOME! ;-)

  • They sell a book at Motherhod Maternity called "I'm going to be a big sister" she could pick that up for DD to open, or have her DH give her a "baby on board" window decal for the car, or even maybe stop by the Carter's store in Garden City.  I got a Big Brother shirt for Domenic in there.  (smallest size is 2T) 
  • my cousin has an ebay shop out of cranston (www.monkeystitches.com). i bet she could get something from her before xmas. email her (her name is linda) and tell her that her cousin sarah sent you.

    let me know if you need more info.

    i should have said that she embroiders (sp?) things and can customize.
