Two Peas in a Pod

After months of hoping to give their daughter a brother or sister, Keri and her husband were thrilled to find out they were expecting—and excited to create a memorable pregnancy announcement. "We decided to wait until the first trimester was behind us to announce the pregnancy so that provided me the time to figure out how to announce," says the Columbia Station, Ohio, mom. "Well, during that time, we also learned that I was carrying twins, so the idea came fairly easily to me. My daughter enjoyed holding the 'two peas in the pod' and my husband and I were so excited to finally share our news." Rather than posting the gorgeous image on Facebook or Instagram, the family placed the photo, which was one of our America's Best Pregnancy Announcement finalists, at the end of a stack of recent family vacation photos for relatives and friends to discover. So fun!

After losing her first pregnancy, The Nest the Laws Built blogger Brittany Laws was sure to get to the doctor early on. At seven weeks, Brittany found out there was not only one baby, but two, and that they were identical! Without knowing the gender, but wanting to share their exciting news immediately, the couple bought two pint-sized pairs of bright red Toms and quickly spelled out the announcement for all.

"These two boys have lived up to our 'double trouble' phrase and have kept us on our toes since my pregnancy," adds the new mom.

A Walk to Remember

Arrows and Apricots blogger Chelsea never imagined that she and her husband Riley would have twins. "I was not on fertility medication, and twins do not run on either side of our family lines," she explained on her blog. "The doctor said it was less than one percent chance of this happening."

To announce the rare news, the couple hired photographer Lindsay Teter to take a collection of scenic shots, some featuring teeny-tiny onesies and ultrasound pictures. Our favorite shot is this sweet image of Chelsea and Riley holding hands while walking down a gorgeous country road with a giant gold number two-shaped balloon. Their journey as parents of twins has begun!

Like most expectant parents, the Sherman Oaks, California, couple wanted a cute, creative way to announce the 20 tiny toes soon to arrive in their life. "We spent the day at a park in our neighborhood with our two friends and just our iPhones, and this picture came out of it," Zoe says of the shoe-themed shot, which she entered into Parents.com's America's Best Pregnancy Announcement Contest. "We both love it, and we are so excited to meet these two babies!"

When Jenny and Chris found out they were expecting twins, they asked their friend Heather Johnson of The Creative Stack to take a series of photos for the announcement, including this pic of the couple holding wooden alphabet blocks together. "I loved the idea of holding the word 'twins' in both of our hands because it signified our love together and the wonderful little ones we created," Jenny says. "So many times you see announcements that just encompass the mom. It was important to me that my husband was included, too."

From utter shock to total excitement, Nicole and her family perfectly convey how reactions to a twin pregnancy can be more than a little complicated.
