Well, thanks to our friend of Inspired Images' photography skills, we took one of our favourite shots of the baby and ordered stamps (paid a little extra for the smaller sheets that come with a "keepsake" that can be put into a frame for us and the two sets of grand parents). According to the Canada Post instruction sheet sent with the stamps, taking the mail outs to an appropriate location, we can have the stamps cancelled manually without necessarily having marks placed all over the stamp itself (pain in the butt I am sure for someone having to process a large mailout, but well worth it for special occasions where these special stamps are used.
So, without further delay (and due to the lack of a decent scanner...):

What a cool idea.
