I’m so cute, my parents are having another!
Our little family has some very exciting news… we are expecting! We put together a sweet pregnancy announcement for a second baby to share the news.
We didn’t do a pregnancy announcement for our first baby. I wasn’t blogging or active on social media at that time, so we just told our friends and family in person. So old school, right? This time, I knew I wanted to include our little guy in the announcement.
What second pregnancy announcement for a second baby is complete without a Big Brother shirt for the sibling-to-be? The shirt Colton is wearing is from Carter’s, and I actually purchased it before finding out we were expecting this baby. I was afraid they would discontinue it! Looks like that was a smart move, because I don’t see it on their site anymore. There are lots of great options out there, though. Here
The chalkboard says, “I’m so cute, my parents are having another.” I’m his mom, so of course I think Colton is the cutest little guy! I fell in love with this design as soon as I saw it. I purchased a digital download of the image on Etsy and had it printed as a black and white engineer print at Staples. The print only cost a couple dollars. I already had a chalkboard on hand from Colton’s first birthday, so I simply taped the print onto it. Super easy!
I took the photo myself with the new camera
Onto the pregnancy itself! This picture is about a month old. Guess I’m slacking on the bump photos this time around! I’m 18 weeks along and getting excited to find out Baby’s gender. We don’t have a preference; I just want to know! This pregnancy has been more difficult for me than my last. I’ve had a lot of morning sickness this time, whereas I didn’t have any with Colton. I’ve also had a lot of migraines and break outs. My skin looks like I’m 13 again! The most important thing is that Baby is happy and healthy. We had an ultrasound at 12 weeks and Baby looked perfect. We are so happy and grateful. And excited!

Thank you very much! Yes, my days of any kind of rest are sadly numbered! I know I will miss my sleep once Baby #2 comes along!
Congrats on the new baby! I did a photoshoot with my first baby and my husband when I was prego. We did white T-shirts and jeans. I love orchestrating the photo shoots as my kids grow and change. These are our cherished memories!
That sounds adorable, Liza! Do you have any photos of it on your blog? I’d love to see!
This is adorable. I love the sign! We announced our second pregnancy at my son’s first birthday party. He opened a gift from us which was a t shirt that said “I’m going to be a big brother, July 2010”. Nobody saw it coming!
That is an awesome idea, Tina! I love it! I bet everyone was shocked!
What a cute announcement! I’m hoping to a second baby this time and I’m so excited of the result of my check up. This is such a cute idea.

Thank you very much, Emily! 🙂
This is adorable!!!! Such a cute print, I’ve always loved the chalkboard designs.
Thank you! I love the chalkboard designs too but am not nearly talented enough to draw them myself. I envy the people who can freehand the gorgeous designs!
Congratulations! The announcement is adorable! I haven’t seen one like this before!
Thank you, Christina! I was trying to do something a little out of the ordinary. Glad it worked!
Congratulations!!! I didn’t do a pregnancy announcement with my first or second but was so excited to do one with my third (it’s so funny that they have only recently become a thing). I love your announcement and how big brother got to help share your news. Hope the rest of your pregnancy goes more smoothly than it has started!
Thank you, Jenny! Did you post your pregnancy announcement for your third on your blog? I’d love to see it!
Aww this is so adorable! I love this idea! Congrats on having another baby! Hope you have a safe pregnancy!
Thank you so much, Katriza! Everything is going well so far. Hopefully it continues that way 🙂
This is so adorable!! Congratulations!
Thank you, Diana! 🙂
Congratulations on new blessings. I am sure Colton would appreciate being big brother. I can relate to when I found out my mom was having my sister. Cute baby bump. Wish you a safe delivery and healthy baby
Thank you so much, Shevy! I hope he is an excellent big brother!
This is ADORABLE! Congrats 🙂 I”ll have to remember for baby #2! (I need to have #1 first! 🙂 )
Thank you, Gina! That’s what Pinterest is for, right? I was pinning sibling activities, etc. before I was even pregnant with my first. LOL 🙂
Congratulations! What a cute idea!
Thank you, Courtney! 🙂
What a cute announcement! And thank you for the info on the prints- such a great idea and it looks so much better than what I can write in chalk, lol. Congratulations!
I can’t do the chalk writing either! I have no drawing talent whatsoever!
Congratulations!! Your announcement is adorable! My 2nd announcement was lame.. I was looking through Pinterest and pinning ideas, forgot to turn off the share to facebook option… and everyone saw what I was pinning LOL
Oh no! That sounds like something I would do! Haha 🙂
Congratulations. How exciting! Praying the 2nd trimester is a breeze for you.
Thank you very much! I’m definitely doing better in the second trimester than I was in the first!
Congratulations!! That is very exciting! You did an awesome job on the announcement photo too. Just looking at it, you would have thought you had a professional do it for you!
That is so kind, Melissa! Thank you so much for the comment!
