Last night, my hubby and I went over for dinner at his dad and stepmom's. His grandma and step-sister were there too, so it was the perfect opportunity to let the cat out of the bag.
When we got there, I didn't take my trench coat off for awhile because I was reallllly cold. Finally the hubs told me I should take it off because it looked suspicious.
So, I did and all seemed normal. I was definitely sucking in hard though because I had on a tight shirt and I didn't want to appear to have even a tiny bump.
The hubs stepmom left for about 45 minutes and came back just in time for dinner. I was dying at this point because I was ready to let everyone know!
We were all sitting around the table, discussing my husband's very artistic brother and some artwork that his step-sister wanted done.
Finally, the hubs said, "Well, we'll have to get Uncle A to do some artwork for the new nursery."
Everyone's eyes started darting around and the hubs grandma let out a huge, "huh?!"
He announced, "We're pregnant!"
Of course everyone was so excited and immediately wanted to know how far along I was and when I was due.
His grandma said, "I KNEW it when you said you had been cold all day!" (For the record, I think this is so funny because I would have never thought that being cold was a giveaway for being pregnant :)
The hubs dad said, "Well I knew something was up when ya'll wanted to get together tonight."
His grandma and step mom said, "We knew it wouldn't be long. In fact, we had discussed that after the last time we saw ya'll!"
I got a big bear hug from my father-in-law before we left and I knew that everyone was excited, but he seemed SUPER excited.
Of course, everyone thinks it's a girl. And I do mean everyone.
I feel a lot of relief now that all immediate family know. Now I'm just waiting to announce to friends!
My nausea has been so much better today, thank goodness. I had to keep the infant/crawlers today at church and I got to hold a 3 month old baby girl! She was SO cute.
Friday and Saturday were tough as far as nausea. Saturday, we spent much of the day running errands and I guess all of the going didn't help.
I'm actually eating some leftover Taco soup that I had frozen and it's sooo good. I know it's going to give me terrible heartburn (by the way, that started last night.)
We are so excited now that all of our close family knows. I'm hoping I can hold out until 10 weeks to announce to friends/facebook/regular blog!
