Better Late Than Never
One of my 2009 goals was to be a better gift giver, and this past Christmas was quite a success, I thought, particularly because Bart and I really planned ahead and weren’t frantically buying gifts at the last second. We had time to think about what to get various family members and I was really pleased with some of the things we chose.
But, without question, the gift we were most excited about (and which came as the biggest surprise to our families) was this one, which we gave to Crawford:
I like how people are going to puzzle over this. Like, "Wait..is she…? Is this…?"
Am so glad I can stop pretending ignorance. Yay baby!
OH!
(really?!)
That's so clever of you!
(I mean–)um, CONGRATULATIONS!
xo

I totally didn't get this until I read the comments. Hurrah! Congratulations! So excited for you guys.
I hope you are feeling o.k. The first trimester can be a doozy.
Oh Janssen – I am just thrilled! Huge congrats to you and Bart – and I just adore the announcement method ~ fantastic!
Have you been very sick?
Heehee! What a good gift!
Very creative and cute, how long did it take Crawford to piece it together? We're sure happy for you!
Wait wait wait, now I am curious. Is this a stolen date due card or is it specially crafted by you with family members birthdates on it or something? Clever either way!
CONGRATULATIONS!
Congratulations! What a cute "announcement."
Wait a minute! You're having a baby and giving it to your brother???
Just kidding.
Congrats!
