Birth Announcements...
The Perfect Way to Announce Your Baby!
Let's face it; your kids are just too cute to keep to yourself! And I don't blame you. I think my kids are cute, too! ;)
So what is the best way to share your joys in the baby's arrival? A Birth announcement!
In most cases, if you have family or friends that live far away, they end up missing out on special moments...like a baby shower or birth of a new baby.
The perfect way to connect with those loved ones is a birth announcement. This is a quick and easy way for a new mom-to-be to let all of her friends and family know the baby has arrived.
After my babies were born, I was in need of some rest and relaxation. I had a long list of people who wanted to know right when the baby was born.
Making the calls was exhausting and stressful for me. My best advice for anyone who had a long delivery and was exhausted...let hubby call those on the urgent list. Then send announcements to everyone so you have time to sleep and enjoy your little one.
Making or Buying Your Announcements
There are so many trendy and fun announcements out there to purchase or make from home. If you are handy with scrapbooking or computer programs, you can whip up really cute announcements for relatively cheap.
My two favorite stores to get announcements are tiny prints and vista print . They both have beautiful designs that can be used with or without photos.

When wording the announcement, there is some basic information to include on the invitation, such as the ...
