Moo
I got the most hilarious birth announcement in the mail. I know -- "hilarious birth announcement" sounds like an oxymoron, especially considering that most parents tend to be very reverent about their new off-spring. Most birth annoucements are all water-color pastels and downy angel wings and soft-focus photos.
This one is quite different.
On one side is the name and stats of the new baby: date, weight, batting average, turn-ons, turn-offs, that kind of stuff.
On the other side is a photo of their firstborn -- a boy who is about two now. I'm assuming the photo was taken at a petting zoo. You know how they have those big cardboard pictures of animals with a cut-out hole where the face is, so you can put your face in there and take a picture of you looking like a kangaroo or ape or whatever?
Well, they put Firstborn in the cardboard picture of baby cow, and the baby cow has a word balloon over its head saying, "My mother can make 10 gallons of milk a day!"
Best. Birth announcement. EVER.

I guess they gave up on the whole "reverent" thing! Hee!

Yep. Laughed a lot when we got that one. And also, a unique call putting a picture of child #1 on child #2's birth announcement. Something child #1 should lord of the head of child #2 for the rest of their lives...
