As soon as I got home from work Friday we started working on our plan. First we called my Mom and Paul. I told my Mom to get Paul on speaker phone with her because we wanted to discuss our Las Vegas trip. When they were both on the phone I said, "We just wanted to tell Grammy & Pop Pop that...WE'RE PREGNANT!" My Mom started screaming and they were both so happy. Then I called my Dad & Sandy and told them we have a belated Valentine's gift for them and we wanted to stop over. So I took a pregnancy test (which was positive!) and we put it in a box that you'd get a bracelet in and wrapped it up (see pictures). When they opened it Sandy's reaction was, "OOOO a new thermometer", she was trying so hard to be nice about it. I said "It's not a thermometer look closer" and my Dad says "Clear Blue, what's that". So finally I just blurted out, "IT SAYS PREGNANT, I'M PREGNANT!" They were so excited and surprised! Next stop, Barnes & Noble so I could get a book and pregnancy journal. We took a picture with my phone of a book that said "Having a Baby" on the cover. I sent the picture via text message to Jill. It took a few hours before she got it and called but she's so excited to be an Aunt! Then we went to dinner w/ Granny, Aunt Vicki & Uncle Harvey but we decided to only tell our parents and sisters right now so it was very difficult for me to keep quiet. After dinner we went to Mike's parents and told them we had their Anniversary gift. I handed Harriet a card that had a pregnant woman on the front and a test inside. She started screaming and crying and Fred was so excited and hugged me so tight. It was great. Then we called Lisa who's in Hawaii and Mike kept saying, "Hi Aunt Lisa, Hi Aunt Lisa" and I could hear her scream through the phone. Then we tried calling Amy who was at the movies, we stalked her in fact. She finally called back and Mike said, " Knuggs is very hurt you didn't call her on her birthday" and I said, "Amy, Knuggs is 2 years today and I'm about 4 weeks!" She said "What?" So I finally just yelled, "WE'RE PREGNANT!" It was so awesome telling our family but I can not wait to tell the rest of the family and all of our friends!!!
