I don't think my sister in law ever got around to getting any when my nephew was born a year and a half later though...so his friends also get cards that say "Meredith's Mom."

By the way, I emailed the Mommy Cards person, and it turns out they're a few weeks away from launching a new site with a new name and new designs that are not mommy-specific! I got a sneak preview of a couple "daddy cards" designs. So I now fully endorse them, even though I think the name "Mommy Cards," for that product more generically, seems to have taken root, at least as far as I can tell from a Google search. Boo.
