I don't know if this will "stick" or not ... but I thought maybe we could have a thread of just Announcements where everyone can share theirs here, no matter when you made the announcement, or to get some fun ideas from this one thread. That way, we wouldn't need individual threads for each person when they announce. And we can all go and "love" their announcement from here. Kinda like a pinterest board for this group?!
So if a few of you will be so kind as to post first, I'll be happy to add mine, and I hope more people will do the same!
Congrats to all!

Re: Post your Announcement Here or share ideas!
Happy Halloween from the 4 of us!!!
I'm also a crazy fan of the tv show Lost (I have an unhealthy relationship with it), and have a lot of FB friends who love it too. I was thinking before putting up the big announcement posting a lost-related pregnancy riddle like - "Gee, I'm glad I'm not on the Island! But, I do wish Juliet was here!!" (My fellow Lost fans on here should get that!)
We just "went public" today, tabloid style!

Haha Bun Maker! That's cute!!
@dragonfly711 I love the cute ones with puppies and kitties in it! That's why I included them on mine LOL I've seen some really cute ones on FB and Pinterest lately ... but here is a link to a google search ... it should give you lots of ideas! https://www.google.com/search?q=pregnancy+announcement+dogs&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=rtFuUpHLJofA4APmw4HgDQ&ved=0CCoQsAQ&biw=1208&bih=741
I think one of my favorites has been the dog sitting next to a pair of baby shoes and it says "DOG'SNAME's Best Friend, coming May 2014" or whatever!

Here is the costume... https://www.etsy.com/listing/60218428/skeleton-maternity-xray-halloween-diy?utm_source=google&utm_medium=product_listing_promoted&utm_campaign=clothing_low&gclid=CIqDg6ar-7kCFZJ9OgodBBgA2g
Anyhow, I'm thinking perhaps a pic of a 'bun in the oven' but knowing my family, I'd get posts asking why I'm posting a 'roll' in my oven hahaha
Also thinking of putting one pair of each of our shoes on the rack (7 pairs total) with the year of the owner written on paper in front of it and then a pair of baby shoes saying 2014, and 'our family is growing by two feet'.
Just praying I get to 12 weeks this time, to announce...
