Telling My Parents

I love my mom. And my dad. I truly do. And I couldn't wait to tell them that we're having a baby. Mostly to have the endless hints and questions about WHEN we're ever going to procreate end. Yes, we've been married for 8 years, yes, I want to have children, yes, I know I'm in my 30s. Ok, already!

Anyway, when we chose to tell them at Christmas through a gift, their reaction was more than we could have hoped. Maybe that's what you get when everyone's given up hope? Nah. Just mom's bubbly personality. Gotta love it. If you know Joyce, you KNOW what I'm talkin' bout. Check out the pictures below.












And just for the record, we got them the "Grandparent's Handbook", a license plate frame and stuffed a few copies of the ultrasound in there too.

Oh yeah, we told Nate's parents at Christmas too, they were happy also, but we didn't take pictures. Sorta knew that the Grellmann side would be a little more, ahem, dramatic.
