6 Weeks

I am writing this post late, since I am actually 7 weeks now.  This was Christmas week, and I was so busy trying to get everything ready and making sure I had all the presents wrapped!  We told our families this week over Christmas in a very fun way!  I took a picture of Mikey holding a sign that said "I'm going to be a big brother" and put the picture in frames that said "Grandkids" and wrapped them up as a present.  

John's parents were the first to unwrap their gift since we spent Christmas Eve with them.  After Mikey opened his presents I had John give the frame to his mom to open. They were very excited when they saw the picture, and couldn't believe it!

On Christmas morning we were at my parents house with my sister and brother, and everyone had finished opening their gifts except for my parents, since they had been so busy taking pictures of everyone else opening their presents.  I told my mom to open her presents and she started to open the frame.  She looked at it and freaked out, and everyone else didn't know what was going on, so one by one they all went over and looked at the picture and they all freaked out too!  They were all so excited!


We all had a great Christmas, and it was so exciting to share our news with our families!  It was hard keeping it a secret from them for so long!  We still haven't told our extended families, we were waiting for our ultrasound!!
