Telling the Grandparents

Well these were a very exciting times!!

We told my mom and dad #2 on Oct. 3rd. Our "ploy" was an airshow that we invited our parents to. I put the surprise in a bag like this...

And this is the box that was hidden inside ...



And this is what was inside the box .....


And here is was my mom's reaction after she opened the unsuspecting box ...


She screamed and cried and screamed some more ....


And then of course the hug (of almost death it was so tight!) ...


Then the following weekend, Oct. 10th, we ventured up to my dad's to bring him his birthday gift of brownies and also my grandad's birthday gift of cookies. Although of course there was another "gift" we were giving them too! Here are their cards ...


Here was my dad's reaction ....


And excitement ....

And then the hug .... With Dave's dad we had to call him, since he is in Canada and all! Dave simply told him that we had just got our flu shots, since anyone who is pregnant or lives in a household with a pregnant person should have one. His dad said "Who is pregnant?" To which I replied... "That would be me!" He was "on cloud nine" according to what he told my parents when he called them immediately afterward!!

It was great to be able to share this moment with my family!! And yes, we still made it to the airshow! LOL
