On Saturday night we went up to Irmo after Clay got off work to celebrate the future great-grandfather's 80th birthday!
When we got there my dad was off at a drag race in Charlotte so we couldn't break the baby news then so we had to bite our tongues until the next morning at breakfast. We convinced my mom and dad, grandparents, Aunt Karen, and Dalton to have breakfast at Grandma's before the birthday celebration. We gave my mom a book called "Some Day" and had her read it to all of us. When it got to the point in the story where the daughter has a child of her own I had taped a picture of the pregnancy tests with "Guess What?!?" written above it. This is the result:
After breakfast Mom and I went shopping to look at formal dresses for our cruise in July. We found two dresses that were perfect and double checked to make sure that they would be stretchy enough by shoving a cardigan and scarf up the dress. :-)
After the shopping excursion we went to Ryan's to celebrate Papa's birthday and then we all went bowling.
Oh, and the baby has now been nicknamed "Leo the Embryo." :-)
And growing a human is exhausting. I need a nap just from typing this.
