CP: Holiday Cards - Including Baby to Be?

DH and I have been discussing this so I was curious what all of you were doing!

How are you planning on signing your holiday cards?

Are you making reference to your little one on the way on your holiday cards this year?
  • Including "and Baby to Be" in the signature. (1.1%)
  • Including "Baby (Last Name)" in the signature. (15.7%)
  • Including actual name of baby to be as part of the signature. (5.6%)
  • Not mentioning baby to be. (56.2%)
  • I don't send holiday cards. (13.5%)
  • Other (Explain) (7.9%)
  • Total Votes: 89

With everything going on this year, I am holding out and sending baby announcements in March.  I am not doing holiday cards this year.  I will do them next year.

"The /insert last name here/ family." It'll include all of us without sounding weird.

DH and I often receive a lot friend/family postcard-type christmas cards with pictures of their kids.  We were joking about sending one that has pictures of our 3 animals and then include an ultrasound picture as the 4th picture.  We probably won't do it but it made us giggle.

I included the baby on only a few cards. Like to friends who are also expecting. But for the most part, no.

We are including our nickname for baby, "Blueberry" on the cards.  But our cards are also going to have a picture of us, with hubby's hands making a heart over my belly.
