More birdies - birdies, birdies everywhere!

I am barely keeping my head above water these days with my Etsy shop. Apparently, the birdie shirts are quite popular with the sibling set. I am definitely NOT complaining about having all these shirts to print, it's just I often lose of how awesome what I do is. These aren't just white t-shirts, they are really exciting things for the recipients! Whether it's a gift or a pregnancy announcement, someone on the receiving end of my hard work is really excited. That's probably why I spend too much time (from an economic standpoint) making sure each one is just right and that the birdies are spaced right and the font looks just perfect on each shirt. When I question the time I spend and the amount of headaches that go into printing these shirts myself, I get a picture like this from a happy customer and I get tears in my eyes looking at those beautiful girls meeting their brand new baby brother with their "big sister" shirts on! Aahh! It's so awesome!



I thought I'd also post the biggest birdie order to date. I shipped out this order for four siblings today! We've done our fair share of threesies, but this was the first "foursie" and adorable it was, even if I do say so myself! I'm sure before long, this adorable set of four shirts will be worn by four very excited siblings and I'll think about that next time I'm cussing out my printer for jamming! :)

Not That you Asked, but I'm so gonna tell you anyway!

I have a few favorite bloggers, okay, I have a lot of favorite bloggers, but one of my first favorites that I became a loyal reader of was Not That You Asked. Emily is the blogger and she truly makes me laugh out loud almost everytime I catch up on her life with a two year old son and newborn baby girl. Plus, I can SO relate, with a 2 1/2 year old girl and a baby boy of my own.

Since I love her blog so much I sent her son and new baby matching big brother/little sister shirts a while back and she posted some adorable pictures of her cute kiddos sporting them. Check 'em out at this post over here.


Since she posted the shirts, I've had a few of you wondering where you can get your very own personalized (or not) birdie shirts, hop on over to my etsy shop or contact me directly if you have some specific requests!

You really need to check out her hilarious blogs is you don't already. She also blogs for Parents.com, so catch up with her now...go... read! Thanks again Emily!

I mean, seriously, how cute is that?

Yes, I design shirts and yes, I like to make money designing shirts, but really - really why do I do this? Cause I know personally how much fun it is to see your little one in an adorable shirt announcing your family is expanding.

Now, if you know me in real life, rest assured, my family isn't growing again any time soon, BUT I thought this shirt was too cute not to model my babygirl (who's almost 2 1/2 now!) in it during a recent cupcake baking and decorating session! Think how fun that would be to email to friends and family and see if they figure it out or have your little one wear a pregnancy announcement t-shirt to a family birthday party, gathering, etc... I just love the element of surprise and better yet, the look on everyone's face when they figure it out!

Valentine's Day T-shirts and Family Fun Ideas!

I've added a couple of really cute designs for Valentine's Day this year. For some reason I've always thought Valentine's day pregnancy announcements would be really special. There's just something about all the love in the air I suppose! Regardless, here are some of my favorite new designs. What do you think?


I also looked up some fun ideas for crafts and projects to do with your little ones on this holiday - so I'll post those soon for everyone. If any of you have fun, creative ideas for this special day, leave us a comment!
