We decided to tell our immediate families right away since, God forbid, if anything were to happen they would be able to help us through it. Anyway, we picked up a few gifts from Target and went on our merry way.
We ended up calling Danielle to tell her since she lives in Kansas. Brian asked her if they were coming up for Christmas this year and she said she wasn't sure and then he asked if they were coming up in January and while she was trying to think about it Brian said, "Because that is when your niece or nephew will be here." He is SOOO cute!! She was so happy and excited for us and said she would definitely be here!
It was really hard for me NOT to spill the beans to my mom! We talk pretty often and I had a Stampin' Up event to go to with her on Friday the 24th, but we wanted to tell Mom and Dad together on the 25th so I had to wait. :( It was worth it though! We went over to Mom and Dad's house on the 25th for lunch and we brought them a present guised as a Mother's Day present that Mom could use when we went scrapbooking on the 25th. We had Dad open the card and Mom open the present at the same time but Mom wanted to wait until Dad opened the card but Dad read the first few words, "To the Grandparents-To-Be" and threw it in the air and we were all waiting for Mom to open the present. She carefully opened it and saw that it was a photo album with a spot for a picture on the front where I placed a photo of the positive test and underneath the picture there was a tag that said, "Grandkids!" She saw it and started to cry - that is where I get it - and we all hugged! It was GREAT!!
To tell Angie and Maria I made little newborn onesies that read, "Auntie Angie Loves Me!" or "Auntie Maria Loves Me" and we got them bibs that said, "I Love Auntie." I told Angie when she came to visit us (Mom and me) at Archiver's and she said, "Really?!" and started to cry and hug us. And we told Maria while she was at work. She thought she was going to see the puppies but we were there instead!
We gave Brian's parents the same card we gave mine. Bruce opened it, smiled and gave us hugs. He said congratulations and that he was so happy for us! Sharon was excited too and looked like she had ants in her pants she was jumping around so much!!
We are slowly telling more people but we don't want to tell too early as we JUST found out!
We'll keep you updated here though!
Baby V is growing:
He is about the size of a poppy seed. His eyes, organs, ears, arms and legs are just starting to form! Only 252 days left!
