We went to Trish’s house for Colin’s 13th birthday party. That was the first time we had seen his family since we found out about the baby. Trish was really excited and asked how I was feeling the past weeks. Nicki and Luke said congratulations. Aunt Nancy asked a bunch of questions while we were eating lunch. I didn’t mind her asking, and in fact she was very interested in what I had to say. We talked about baby names, feelings I was having, and what we were to expect in the months to come. It was really nice to see Michael’s family and talk to them since a lot of them have younger kids and just went through this not that long ago.
My parents have been telling me for the past couple weeks that I need to tell my Grandma Betty the exciting news. The other day Uncle Ron called and asked our family down to their house for dinner tonight. I didn’t know if I should tell everyone again or just tell Grandma Betty. I asked Uncle Ron and he suggested just telling her; as it turned out, Aunt Joan and Uncle Ron left the room and I had the chance to tell just her.
I brought the ultrasound pictures from a month ago and asked if she would like to see our newest pictures. To everyone’s surprise, she was very polite about the whole situation. She even said that I gave her someone more to live for and that she was very excited for us. We had a good conversation after dinner about a lot of things.
After Michael and I got home, I sent an email out to Aunt June and Uncle Rich, Aunt Mary and Uncle Jack, Niki, Lori, and Crystal. I figured everyone would be very excited and they were. Niki even offered if we need anything to just ask her and she may be able to help. Now I think everyone knows if both our families.
