Today we told my parents and it was so exciting. Paul and I wanted to do it together so I went up to Stuart, VA a couple days ago and Paul came up this evening. He was trying to get up early but could not get out of work so it was after 8pm by the time he got up.
Since were are celebrating my birthday this weekend we thought it would be fun to put the good news on my birthday cake. Britt and I made the cake earlier today, and we were all sit around the fire outside when Paul got here. Trying to get everyone back inside proved to be a harder task than originally planned but we got it worked out. So Brittany and Paul went to get the cake and light the candles while Mom, Dad, and I sat at the table. They came out singing "Happy Birthday" and put the cake down in front of me to blow out the candles. Instead of saying Happy Birthday Emily the cake read Congrats Grandparents! It only took a couple of seconds for Mom and Dad to notice then it was time to celebrate.
I got to show them the 8 week sonogram pictures and we talked about the due date, May 5th, and everything else we could think of. It was a lot of fun. They are very excited, but it is still a secret since I am not quite 12 weeks yet and we still have to tell the rest of the family.
