Baby 2 Thanksgiving Announcement
1. “Thankful for Our Growing Family”
If you’re keeping it classic, this is for you! It’s Thanksgiving, after all—gratitude is the name of the game.
How to do it: Take a family photo where your first little one proudly holds a sign that says, “Promoted to Big Sibling,” with pumpkins and cozy fall leaves scattered around.
Caption Idea: “We’re beyond grateful this year—our family is growing! Baby #2 arriving [Due Date]!”
Trust me, this one’s a crowd-pleaser! And what better way to capture that “our family is growing” glow than in a Thanksgiving family pic that’ll get all the oohs and ahhs?
2. Turkey Sibling Love
This one is all about the big sibling moment. Imagine your first little turkey finding out they’re about to have a built-in best friend.
How to do it: Dress your first kiddo in a turkey costume or a cute “Big Sibling” Thanksgiving shirt, then place a mini turkey hat or onesie for baby #2 right next to them.
Caption Idea: “Our little turkey has a new sidekick! Baby #2 arriving soon.”
The family will love it, and it’s one of those photos you’ll look back on every year and think, Wow, our little turkey has grown up so fast!
3. Pumpkin Pie & Blessings x2
When Thanksgiving rolls around, we all know that pumpkin pie is pretty much the official dessert. Why not let it share the spotlight with baby #2?
How to do it: Set out a plate of pie slices, with an extra little slice reserved for “Baby #2.” Or, set up a small chalkboard with “Blessings x2” surrounded by pumpkin pies and a baby onesie.
Caption Idea: “One more slice of love on the way! Baby #2 arriving [Due Date].”
This one has all the cozy vibes, and your family will definitely get the hint. Plus, it’s the kind of announcement that says “baby on board” without even needing the words.
4. Pilgrim Hats and Turkey Bows
Let’s be real, nothing says “throwback Thanksgiving” like a tiny pilgrim hat or a turkey bow. Baby #2 is bringing some old-school charm!
How to do it: Place a mini pilgrim hat or little turkey bow next to a pair of baby shoes, surrounded by fall leaves. Instant Thanksgiving cuteness!
Caption Idea: “Adding a new pilgrim to the family this Thanksgiving! Baby #2 arriving [Due Date].”
If you love the idea of a vintage-y Thanksgiving announcement, this one is for you. It’s simple, sweet, and nostalgic in all the right ways.
5. Cornucopia of Joy
Cornucopias are kind of like the forgotten symbols of Thanksgiving, but they’re bursting with bounty and blessings—pretty much perfect for a baby announcement, right?
How to do it: Fill a small cornucopia with mini pumpkins, baby shoes, and a onesie. Add a sign that says “Blessed x2” for an extra sweet touch.
Caption Idea: “Our cornucopia of blessings just got fuller! Baby #2 on the way!”
This is the kind of announcement you’ll want to take with some cozy lighting and a warm, autumnal setup. And hey, it’s all about the bounty of love, right?
6. Double the Love Picnic
If you’re more into the outdoor vibes, imagine setting up a “Big” and “Little” themed fall picnic. (Bonus points if you bring along the cozy blankets!)
How to do it: Set up a cute fall picnic scene where your first child sits on a small picnic blanket with a pumpkin labeled “Big Sibling.” Next to them, place another pumpkin or mini blanket that says “Little Turkey.”
Caption Idea: “Thankful for another little one to love!”
Simple, sweet, and totally Instagrammable. And you know your family’s comments are going to be filled with heart emojis after they see this.
7. Little Pumpkin Pie and Baby Shoes
Pumpkin pie, baby shoes, and a big announcement—does it get any more Thanksgiving than this?
How to do it: Place a tiny onesie with “Little Pumpkin” next to a mini pumpkin pie and a pair of baby shoes.
Caption Idea: “Adding another sweet little pie to the family. Baby #2 arriving [Due Date]!”
This setup is all about those personal touches that show your growing family’s love. And baby shoes just get us every time, right?
So, there you have it, mamas! Whether you’re all about those classic turkey vibes or the mini pumpkin everything, these Thanksgiving announcements are bound to make your family’s holiday that much sweeter.
Baby #2 is already so loved, and this is such a fun way to let everyone know your family is growing.
Happy Thanksgiving, and here’s to ALL the blessings this season!
