You may have been the short kid on the block when growing up, or the tom-boy always playing sports with the boys. With announcements, you're declaring to the world that you're preparing to take your place in the adult world by taking on the awesome responsibility of caring for a new child.
Yes, a birth announcement looks simply like a notice that someone new has been born into the family. Putting a picture into the announcement lets people take a peak into the change in your life. It also allows family members to play the "he has your uncle Henry's nose" and her mother's eyes" type games. It never ceases to amaze me how people can see other people in a newborn whose features are still moving into shape from the birth.
Older people are especially susceptible to reflecting on the meaning and changes of a new child being brought into the world. Some may reminisce about they're own childrens births and the challenges faced. Some may remember fondly the parents of that newly minted child when they were children themselves.
