Deja Vu

It is Deja Vu over at the lil Mop Top house. Baby #3 is due in 5 weeks (anyone else panicking?) and one more thing added to my to-do list is the baby announcement.

I am in the same situation I was two and a half years ago: John and Matthew had super cute and unique announcements so what in the world do I do for the next one?!

As a reminder, here is what I have made:

and what Brad has made (which make me laugh but we didn't send those out!):

Can you tell Brad loves the movie 'Jaws'?

So, anyone have ideas of another unique baby announcement???

Please be a fan of lil Mop Top on facebook!! I link up to these parties!

Baby Announcement #2

Brad loves the movie Jaws. When I was pregnant with John I loved the name Brody but we had to nix it because he was a character in Jaws and people would think that is why we picked that name! Anyway...in addition to the announcements I made, Brad made his own baby announcements when each baby was born. They are super cute and perfect for their baby books!

Here is the one he made when John was born...

(a man of a few words!)

and here is the one he made when Matthew was born...


We can see his photoshop skills have improved, although he definitely left out a couple pieces of information that is usually requisite for an announcement...such as the birthdate, time, weight, full name...minor details! :)

Baby Announcement

Baby Matthew's announcements are FINALLY finished, addressed, and in the mail to family and friends. After making the announcement using photoshop, I ordered them using some free credits on Arts Cow (although I had to order them TWICE because the sizing wasn't correct the first time!).

So, without further ado, here it is!!



Pretty cute if I do say so myself! :)

...and just in case you didn't read a previous post about announcements, here is the one I made when John was born:



Geez...looking at these two pictures, my sons look nothing like each other! Crazy!
