I hope you had fun peeking into our lil’ pumpkin celebration yesterday. 🙂
Today it’s all about Baby #2.
Back in August, I was feeling quite sleepy and started wondering if maybe I had a bun in the oven.
On a whim, I took a pregnancy test.
It was a Sunday morning, so the Happy Hubby had already left for church to get the worship team prepped and rehearsed for the services. I knew I was going to have to wait awhile before sharing the exciting news with him.
All morning long I tried to come up with some clever idea of how I could tell him.
But I got nothing.
I even tried looking on the internet for ideas.
But I still wasn’t inspired.
I considered passing him a note during the sermon that read, “I’m pregnant,” but something just didn’t feel right about that. I wasn’t sure our pastor would appreciate us jumping up and laughing and crying and holding each other in the middle of his teaching. 🙂
So I waited.
Later that afternoon the Happy Hubby and I were relaxing on the couch and I finally couldn’t hold it in any longer.
I reached over to my man, took his hand, and asked, “Hey baby, what are you doing in April?”
He looked at me peculiarly and answered, “Uh, I have no idea. That’s like 9 months away.”
I smiled coyly.
His jaw dropped.
So clever and cute and inspirational and super original, right?!?!?!
I guess even the Happy Home Fairy has her uncreative moments. 🙂
After my amazing presentation (haha), we raced to the mall and let the Happy Buddy tell everyone else.
As you can see, he takes his role as Big Brother very seriously. 🙂
Happy Good News Part 2-ing! 🙂
Congads Julie!! Blessings from above…
GUS was born on April 15th. YOU COULD HAVE A LITTLE GUS!
As you know, I’m trying to get pregnant! I’ve been thinking of how I’ll tell my husband. The first three times he knew I was taking the test so it wasn’t a surprise!
The Internet is NO help….I agree.
I think I’ve decided on…..
Asking Brett to hold kids so I can get a family picture. Then say “on the count of three say “mommys pregnant”….that way I can capture their first reaction…..mostly Bretts face!!!
I always tucked a little stuffed animal somewhere for DH to find to tell him we were pregnant. The first time it was a puppy with a pink and a blue ribbon tied around his neck. The last one I kept to myself for a few days. I knew it was going to be our last one and I wanted that secret just for me to enjoy! I finally put a little stuffed monkey under his blanket on his pillow. 🙂
We used a Big Sister shirt too, to tell everyone about our third 🙂
Congrats! This is happy news!
CONGRATS! Your stories are so adoable!! Such a lucky little one to have you as a mom!
