Photography question

[gnomesweetgnome]

Hey ladies! DH and I are having some photos made this weekend, and I was thinking of doing some cheesy adoption-related shots with a small chalkboard, but I can't figure out what we should write on it. I was thinking something like:

Waiting for our miracle

but I'd LOVE some more ideas. I tried searching Google (when you search for adoption, adopting, etc. there are tons of post-adoption pics and animal pics) and Pinterest, but didn't find anything.

I'd like to avoid "adoption is when a baby grows in Mommy's heart instead of her tummy" or similar, because that saying always makes me feel like gagging, lol.

Any ideas??

(I usually post over on the Food board, but I jump over here sometimes. I had an idea for you, so I thought I'd jump in. Anyway...hi. )

How about writing something on the chalkboard like:

The [your last name] family.
Est. [your wedding date]
[Your name], Mom
[Your hubby's name], Dad
??, Our future child

I saw some cute ones like "waiting for you" and "Baby [lastname]"

we haven't told our parents yet that we're adopting & plan to 'announce' it with a photobook.

I'm assuming that's what the photos are for - but let me know if i'm wrong

We're giving ours to our parents & siblings, so included tons of photos of us with them at different life events & then proceeded to have photos of us traveling

and ended with our next big trip: a photo of us standing by a map of africa with a huge arrow pointing to ethiopia. And on the following page explaining the photo. I had a great living social deal for the books, so we went with that idea.

Something like this:


I've also seen a cute one with a balloon that I can't find right now. I found this one and the other on pinterest.

I don't have any better ideas than what's already been posted, but sounds cute! Have fun.
