Dinosaur-Themed Birth Announcement Goes Viral In Dallas

DALLAS, TX — A Dallas family has captured headlines around the U.S. after their dinosaur-themed baby announcement went viral on Facebook. The idea for her family to wear the popular inflatable T-Rex costumes came from Nicole Berkley in February after she suffered a miscarriage, Berkley wrote on Facebook.

"They turned out exactly as I dreamed," Berkley wrote regarding the photos taken by Susan Garrett. "We had A LOT of ups and downs after we found out about this pregnancy but we could NOT be more excited about this little one."

Berkley is now expecting her fifth child in April.

The inflatable T-Rex costume has become a popular meme after Rubie's Costumes released it in 2015 leading up to the release of "Jurassic World," KnowYourMeme reported. The costume has since become a best seller on Amazon and inspired hundreds of people to wear it while performing mundane tasks like working out.
