My mom's brithday is today and she agrees with us that we win the prize for "best gift" this year. :)
She got her birthday card in the mail yesterday, actually, and inside were 2 of these "tickets":
She eventually figured it out and then freaked out (with excitement, of course). She and daddy called soon after that and we all talked about it. It was pretty surreal.
The plan was to email this photo:
to my brother and sister-in-law when we got off the phone with mom and dad. So we did. At 6:30pm. And the idea was that they would open it, figure it out and call us a short time later.
FOURTEEN HOURS LATER...Daniel finally calls me at 8:30am this morning. They didn't see the email until this morning -- well, Daniel saw it before he went to work but Brandi was already at work. So he called to tell her and she was really excited. When he called me, he had his own little "plan" in mind. He started off with this mindless chit-chat . I eventually had to ASK him if he got my email. And then he played dumb about it. Punk.
But the conversation was fun and full of this and that. He's pretty excited for us. He's been sending me texts all day. Brandi called me this afternoon to talk to me a minute and tell me herself how excited she was. She's pretty excited about being an aunt. I told her it was lots of fun being an aunt! :)
Whew. Two down, lots to go. It's weird to think that someone now knows we're pregnant. Even if it is family.
