I just keep telling myself that if etiquette requires that you send a thank you note for wedding gifts within a year of the wedding, that I'm still totally fine within a year from when the boys were born. Maybe two. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-to-get-your-los-birth-announcements-sent-out#post-1255754 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 10:20:24 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1255754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO was two weeks old when they went out. I had everything ready to go before she was born just waited on a pic and stats. Envelopes were addressed and stamped. Made it easy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-to-get-your-los-birth-announcements-sent-out#post-1255732 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 10:13:24 +0000 rattles 1255732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD was about 3 weeks when we sent them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-to-get-your-los-birth-announcements-sent-out#post-1255669 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 09:53:57 +0000 GrapeCrush 1255669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS were out before he was 3 months and in pretty sure DD were out by 1 month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-it-take-to-get-your-los-birth-announcements-sent-out#post-1255647 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 09:44:31 +0000 blackbird 1255647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got them out maybe week 3?

Originally I wanted them out during November so I could also send Christmas cards this year. Obviously that didn't happen. How long did it take you to get yours in the mail??? </p>
