I'm not posting mine for another couple of weeks because we have to tell the rest of dh's family and we'll be seeing them in person on the 15th so we want to do it then After we tell them, I'll post. This was also my first attempt at the photo and the cats were NOT being cooperative so I may try again but initial thoughts are welcome. Obviously, our last name will go where "xx" is now. Do you like the color photo or b&w better?

That is really cute. I like the one in color a little better but either one.
We had a family photo session planned in June for my toddler turning 2, but had a family death and had to cancel. The first availability was late July and we found out shortly before that we were pregnant, so I took that as a sign and incorporated some ideas for the pregnancy announcement. I just got the pictures, and I am debating between the two to use to announce to extended family, friends and later on fb ; hoping you guys can help me pick one!

Option 1:
Option 2:
I like your first photo the best. I decided to just use one photo for family (sending out emails to aunts, uncles, cousins, etc) and facebook.
You are all so on top of it. With this being baby #3 we've just been telling people as we see them. Last night h and I actually had the discussion: "Did you tell your grandma?"
"I can't remember, did you tell her?"
"I'm not sure, I bet someone has told her by now."
We should probably "officially" announce it so that we don't have to worry about leaving anyone out.

I like the color better. You may just want to put "The cat's out of the bag." I get what you're trying to do with cats' since there are two but it reads like there is a word missing. Plus, since one is literally out of the bag it still makes sense. Or you could put "The cats are out of the bag" but I guess that's not really the saying. I think it makes it cuter that they weren't cooperating! No need to retake the picture at all.

I was wondering the same thing- I think you're right- thanks!

Here's ours! We are posting in about a week and a half. Does it make sense? Does it shout "pregnancy Annoucement" to you?
I love the way your "Prego" announcement picture came out. I do think it should say something about Baby Last Name Feb. 2016, just so there is no confusion.
We're 12 weeks tomorrow but are leaving for vacation this weekend with no wifi or cell service for a few days, so we're going to wait to announce when we get back. We're mailing announcements to friends and family (basically everyone we invited to our wedding) and then will post on social media a few days after that.
Haven't posted yet because I'm not sure this is the announcement I want to use... I was hoping to wait until we found out the sex but DH is getting antsy lol. This is how he found too
ETA: DH found out in person and I took a pic of the setup after, I didn't just text him this picture or anything lol
I need help ladies! This is baby number 3 first two are girls and we finally got our boy this time around. Now I need help thinking of a clever way to announce its a boy. It will also be the official announcement that we are pregnant since we have done that yet. Any ideas are welcome. Thanks for the help. I've drawn a blank.

"One is not like the other"? And have baby boy stuff mixed in with your girls, maybe?
inomniaparatus I love it! Adorable. I'm just not sure on the grammar. I think it should be either "The cat's out of the bag" (referring to your one cat who is outside) or "The Cats 're out of the bag!" But either way, even if you go with your version, well done!
Due Date: Feb. 24, 2016

Thanks! I didn't want to change the saying ---as in "the cat's out of the bag" but I was going for the plural since there are two cats without reverting to "are" because that's not how saying goes lol
So I went with "The cat(s)' " as in there are multiple but I'm conjugating for singular. It's waaay too complicated. So I'm taking your suggestion, as well as the other person's who mentioned before, and going with the simple "The cat's out of the bag" since there technically is only one cat in the bag lol

@inomniaparatus I think if you change it to the cats are out of the bag people might ask if it's twins. Anything with sounding like two people get all crazy about twins

Good point!
I'm changing it to "The cat's out of the bag"

Could you do a picture of your two little girls holding up baby boy stuff and either looking upset or super excited?
@totmeares there's a really cute pic on pinterest of two little girls sitting at a table having tea with a sign on the 3rd seat that says "reserved" You could always put a blue onesie or toy truck in the seat to show boy!
