We travelled to Atlanta the weekend after returning from Yellowstone.
Telling the Parkers:
I ordered adorable "I love grandma/grandpa bibs for my mom & dad and "I love my Auntie" bibs for Cheri & Abbey. I wrapped the bibs and stuck them in the bottom of a gift bag with the souveniers we bought for them in Sweden. We made them open the souvenier 1st & then open the "other present".
We gave my parents their "gifts" on Friday night. They were definitely excited!
We gave Cheri & Abbey their "gifts" on Saturday night before my early birthday dinner. It definitely took them a minute to catch on to the meaning of the bib. There were a few gasps and jaws hanging open & then lots of laughs & hugs.
We took this picture on Saturday night after dinner:
Telling the Tarrs:
We spent Saturday afternoon at the Tarr's house sharing our pictures of Sweden with them and swapping Yellowstone pictures.
After looking over all of the travel pictures, Chris told his parents that we had a couple of more pictures and then handed each of them an ultrasound picture.
They were definitely surprised especially since we had just spent a week with them in Yellowstone & made no mention of our big news.
We were also able to tell Erin before she headed off to work.
We spent the ride back to Nashville on Sunday afternoon calling the rest of our family to share the news.
The last few weeks since have been spent calling, e-mailing, messaging dear friends to tell them about our little one.
We have had so much fun sharing our news!
