Baby's First Christmas Ornaments and Christmas Pregnancy Announcement Ideas
There is nothing quite like the first Christmas with a new baby. The tiny stocking, the first photo by the tree, the grandparents who suddenly want to visit every weekend. Whether your little one has already arrived or is still on the way, the holidays are the perfect time to celebrate and announce your growing family.
Here in our family workshop in Henderson, Nevada, we cut and engrave every piece to order, so each ornament, sign and cake topper carries your baby's own name, date and details. Below are our favorite ideas for a baby's first Christmas and for sharing big news over the holidays.
Baby's First Christmas Ornaments
A first Christmas ornament is the keepsake that comes out of the box every December for years to come. Wood ornaments are lightweight, won't shatter like glass, and are easy to personalize.
- Baby's First Christmas Ornament with Year: a simple, classic design with your baby's name and the year.
- Baby's First Christmas Snowflake Ornament: delicate snowflake cut outs around your little one's name.
- Baby's First Christmas Footprints Ornament with Birth Stats: tiny footprints plus name, birth date, weight and inches, so the ornament doubles as a birth record.
- Baby's 1st Christmas Footprints Ornament: a sweet footprint design that makes a lovely gift for new parents.
Tip: these make wonderful gifts for grandparents too. Order one for each household so everyone has the same keepsake on their tree.
Christmas Pregnancy Announcement Ideas
Family is often all together at Christmas, which makes it one of the most popular times to share a pregnancy. A little planning turns the moment into a photo you will treasure.
