My family is all from out of town and usually comes in for holidays. I plan on telling everyone when they come in for Easter! (I'm one of 8 kids so lots of brothers and sisters to tell!) Anyone have any cute ideas for announcing during this time or cute pictures they'd like to share?!
We're probably doing a craft project. I'm getting DS to help it's going to be decorated Easter eggs, one for every member of the family and one for our little one coming. I'm going to put folded cards next to them labelling Mommy egg, Daddy egg, Alessandro egg (our son) and Baby egg coming October 2015!
This is our second, so we're not doing anything really big. We are planning on announcing to extended family on Easter. I bought a hair bow that says "Big Sister" for my daughter. We're just going to be casual and see who notices first. I'm sure there will be lots of squeals and excitement!
We announced my 1st pregnancy at Christmas by wearing t-shirt that said "I'm hiding the best gift of all".

I agree with previous posters....."some bunnies got a secret"...."we're egg-specting"... something along those lines. There are so many fun ways to run with it.
We broke the news to my MIL while we were in Disney 2 weeks ago. We had Disney (Minnie mouse) shirts made for our girls (etsy) that said they're going to be a big sister (and a big sister again). =-)
We plan on telling "the world" right around Easter too! =-) Have fun!
I'm blowing out a couple of eggs and putting notes inside about us expecting #3. We will be mailing them to my parents and bringing it with us to celebrate Easter with the in-laws. The kids have big brother and big sister shirts that we will probably use for a public announcement later in April
These are all great ideas! I love the "egg-specting" and spilling the jelly beans! Maybe I'll get some plastic eggs and fill them with jelly beans and a little note and have everyone open them together. For my parents get a larger egg and put an US picture in with it to make it more special.
We have already told our parents and siblings, but plan to tell all of our grandparents (and whatever other family members might be around) on Easter. I had already bought frames that I painted to put an US photo in, but just found out I won't get to have an US before Easter (bummer!). So I will probably just make some sort of cute announcement to put in the frames and present them to each of our grandparents - maybe a cute baby bunny or something.
I'm planning to tell my in laws on Easter. Found these adorable neautral yellow crochet baby shoes and when they open the box it's going to say, "we're egg-specting!" I can't wait to see the look on their faces!
All my family is from out of town and the last time my parents came down we just moved into our new house! Our upstairs bedroom that we were making an office, we are setting the nursery up in there and going to tell them we finally finished it and have them walk in there!!

We are doing the same thing. Blowing out eggs and putting a note inside. I found the idea on Pinterest and decided to get crafty.
