What a cool time for you guys! I know you are anxious to tell everyone, it is really a special time!

We told David's sister immediately because we live with her and she was actually the one who bought the pregnancy test. I knew there was no way I was going to be able to keep it from her. So, she kept our secret for a couple weeks until we told our families on Christmas Eve.

We were at David's parents' for Christmas and they open a lot of Christmas gifts on Christmas Eve. We knew there'd be a lot of the family there. We got t-shirts that said "This is what a cool grandma/pa looks like" and wrapped one each for David's parents (this is their first grandchild) and for my parents back home in South Carolina. We called my parents and put them on speaker phone, and had all four of them open the shirts at the same time. It was pretty neat to be able to announce it to all our parents at the same time!
