Thanks everyone for the nice remarks. My girls are my life and I am so blessed to be their mother.

The site I used was WONDERFUL to work with. I highly recommend them. I have PM'd those of you that have asked.

Love it!

I love your announcement! I especially love the way you did the black and white photos on the left and the main photo in color (wish I had thought of that). Your daughter is BEAUTIFUL (they both are) and has the most stunning, big eyes. Thanks for sharing the announcment with us.

By the way, I used the same site to do my announcement and loved them too!
