Can someone help with X-Mas type announcements?
I am due with twin boys on Christmas Day. However, my Dr said he will not let me go past 38 weeks. So my boys will be about 2 weeks on Christmas.
I would like to take some pics of them to send out before Christmas if I can(I know that may not be possible) or after is fine too. One of the ideas I had was putting each of them in a stocking and covering their carseats or bouncys with a white blanket. Saying something like we received the most precious gifts. I need a better saying and some more ideas if you can help? TIA

Love your idea!
Even wrapping them in big bows (you know, the big, soft ribbon you could tie into bows) would be very cute with the "gift" saying.

Melissa!!!!!
I didn't know you were having twins!!!!!
Amazing, congrats. I am so happy for you, and apologize for being out of the loop.
Gavin was born November 8th, so he was about 6 weeks old for Christmas. I think I might have laid the card out beforehand and dropped the pics in when I took them.
This is what we did. I also put DS in a beautifully decorated gift box with tissue paper on Christmas morning and got great snaps, so maybe that's an idea?
Can't post the pic for some reason.
I forgot that I made 2, 1 from shutterfly and one from tinyprints.
It was a 3 photo and the center one he had a santa hat on and the other 2 were sleeping pics. The card read
Our little angel is here to wish Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

- Christmas came early this year
- We have been blessed this holiday season
- New reasons to celebrate the season

Hope they help

Love the idea....you could also get them personalized diaper covers and lay them under the tree or in a sleigh or something like that.
Love the above sayings too.

It's not letting me copy a shutterfly image, any help?
Now that is cute! Maybe you can e-mail to me? I'll FM you.

Re: Can someone help with X-Mas type announcements?
This is wording for adoption/single but can be tweaked:
Once upon a cold winter's day
a tiny package came hitched to a sleigh
Santa had brought us our little boy
Our Christmas wish was granted...oh Joy!
Two miracles instead of one...
Two special lives have just begun
Another few with wording to tweak:
