Sent from reader, Jesse:

Attached is a pic of the way my husband and I broke the news of our first pregnancy, via our two adopted pups. I got the idea from Etsy, but couldn’t afford $30+ each (and they don’t even make them in the Doberman’s size) for the fancy, ordered T shirts. So, I made my own. I hit up Hobby Lobby for the ultra cheap T shirts (heck, the pups will only wear these once) and used a Hobby Lobby coupon. I used fabric pens and Sharpies I’ve had on hand in the house for years. $8 for my (online) baby announcement, not bad! 🙂

HAPPY FRIDAY! 😀

      “Sent from reader, Jesse:” 😉 It’s not Collin’s prego announcement.
      I made the same mistake with a previous Happy Friday post pregnancy announcement, so you’re not alone. 😛
