Telling the Parents
This week we shared with both sets of parents our BIG news! On Thursday, Nathan and I stopped by the Ridlehoover's pretty late after a softball game. We were there about 30 minuets before Nate got the courage to tell them that we were going to have a baby! They were both extremely excited and jumped up giving us hugs. On Sunday my parents came in town and we were able to share our news with them too! I had bought a book for my mom called "Someday". It's a book about a mother who has a baby and how she grows up and someday will have a baby of her own. It was the perfect gift! First, I gave them a card and my mom opened it and it took her a little while before she said, "No your not!" over and over again. My dad was clueless for about 3o seconds...then when the lightbulb finally went off, he was speechless and teary eyed. All weekend long dad kept saying, "I can't believe my baby is having a baby".
