We are in second trimester 9/17 but I think we will wait until Halloween to share... DD is going to be a Rockford Peach, DH is going to be Jimmy Dugan, and I'll rock a baseball belly shirt. Pooch will wear a hotdog costume.

We are so not Pinterest-y, but I love seeing everyone else's cute announcements. I have no idea how we will announce. Maybe just a pic when the baby arrives?
I bought a "promoted to big sister" shirt for DD to wear when I told DH. And I think we will use it to tell our families. But for our announcements to friends/extended family/Facebook I'm hoping to take a cute photo.

I've been spiraling for years. We will announce on social media at some point this fall. I am 95% sure we will do a pumpkin announcement because of my pumpkin obsession. I found an adorable shirt on etsy that says little pumpkin on the belly. I have already purchased 10 different funny onesies on Etsy that I would also like to incorporate in some pictures. Our Christmas card is going to be in front of our new camper and I did get a "happy camper" onesie so that might be another announcement idea.
I have actually already got mine ready. Just had to tweak the one when we found out it is two. PDQ Poof Poof
The first was a pair of our shoes and the dog collar with birth years underneath and baby shoes w/ 2017 The second was my son in a big brother shirt and dog in a big brother bandana
I want to do a fall family portrait with DS holding our u/s picture. I plan to go "public" on our wedding anniversary, a few days shy of 2nd trimester.
We don't know if we'll actually announce or not but if we do, we'll do something similar to this. Only major difference is it'll have a pair of DS's shoes and a pair of infant shoes and say "the magic continues... Spring 2017" instead of begins
I don't know how we will announce. Nothing sticks out for me, though I was thinking of playing on our gamer backgrounds.
We didn't get a chance to announce with DS because my MIL told everyone before we could. Same with MC#1, she told everyone even when we begged her not to.

Our son is obsessed with 'surprise eggs' so we did that for my parents. Put a 'I'm going to be a big brother' note in 2 eggs then he hide them for them to find.
We haven't decided how to really announce to everyone yet. I want a picture of some sort so I'll be following this.
I need a really cute idea for coworkers though. We'll all be moving home when I'm 10 wks, so I want a cute way to tell them right after my 1st apt....or when it becomes extremely hard to hide cause there's 13 of us shoved in a super small room at the moment. Thank god for no real symptoms yet.

I've been thinking about putting 4 pumpkins on my front stoop and painting "Mom, Dad, DD, Baby" on each of them and writing something like "Lil Pumpkin due April 2017" below. It's super cutesy but I like stuff like that.

I'm not big into social media, or sharing pics of Leo on FB, so that kind of an announcement isn't really on my radar. I like to slip it into normal conversation because I feel like people knew we were trying to get pregnant again. Also, it super catches them off guard and its funny to watch their brain catch up to what they just heard.
All that being said, we did post a picture of a onesie hung between two stockings on our mantle with a "Merry Christmas, from our family to yours" to announce we were pregnant with Leo
