Telling the Family...

At 10 weeks we decided we would tell the family about our little surprise. It was very difficult to keep it a secret for the 4-5 weeks that we had already hit it for, so it was time to share the news. We were both unsure how/ when we wanted to tell everyone and agreed that it needed to be with a gift. And since i had bout a 4 pack of white onesies when i made the daddy one i decided to make grandparents ones.

We decided that March 8th would be the day, and as it approached i got really excited. So of course we slipped to a few people a little bit early. We told both of my brothers the night before. Brittney (my sister in law) responded with a " well i kind of already knew" and the kids seemed excited to have their first cousin on daddy's side of the family! I told my little brother Devon over the phone on thursday night, making him promise not to tell mom before i could and of course he kept the secret.

We told my mom first, her work is on the way from our house to Scappoose, to when we stopped to say hi we gave her a little gift bag with her I love grandma onesie! she was excited, and actually hung it up on the wall in he massage room.  i think since then my mom has decided to tell everyone she knows... i get congratulatory texts from people whose numbers i don't even have saved in my phone!

Later that same night we told both brads parents and my dad and step mom, who were all excited. Brads parents told 2 people before we even left the restaurant. And my dad immediately called his sister. So needless to say all of the grandparents are excited!
