Ideas for sharing the news on Christmas?
I'm still trying to decide if I really AM pregnant or if I got a false positive due to a HCG shot I had 12 days ago, but if I am, I would LOVE to share the news with our parents in a creative way on Christmas day. I know the risks about sharing the news too early and getting too excited when I don't even know for absolute sure, but it's fun to think/chat about!
Do you have any Christmassy ideas for how to creatively share the news with our folks on Christmas?

A couple of years ago my sister wrapped up her sono in a box, wrapped inside a bigger box, wrapped inside an even bigger box.

My sister is buying my parents a pack-n-play to surprise them!
Also she had another good idea but isnt doing it...she wanted to play pictionary and during an all-play, draw a pregnant girl to signify "I am pregnant" Love this idea!

We told our families with sweatshirts that said "i'm going to be a Grandma!" and "I'm going to be a Grandpa!"

Re: Ideas for sharing the news on Christmas?
the first time i got pregnant i got this for my mom (image below). but i never got to give it to her cause I m/c a week later.
after this BFP, even though she was with me every step of the way of IVF, I still gave it to her to "formally" announce the BFP. she loved it!! we had also purchased a little yankees set for dad but we just ended up telling him over the phone since i dont see him that much.
but i think any cute grandparent or baby related thing that you can wrap and they can unwrap and be confused for a minute before really understanding, is perfect  Image Attachment(s):

Re: Ideas for sharing the news on Christmas?
We announced to our family on christmas. what i did was i wrote on a piece of paper
Coming soon
08.20.10
and attached it to a newborn diaper. I then put in a box and wrapped it up like a christmas present. We had one of our nephews open it up. Of course he was 3 so he opened it saw it was a diaper and threw it across the room. My sister in law got it right away though and it was just a domino effect after that. I really did love how we announced.
