Week 7- 2nd Doctor's appointment and telling Jeremy's parents

We had our second doctor's appointment on September 2nd. We found out the results from my blood test from my August 26th appointment and everything is going perfect. My blood work came back great! So both mama and baby are healthy. I am so thankful for that. I've been so nervous as to be expected that I just wanted everything to be good. The doctor told Jeremy that I do not have any diseases and if I did that would mean he is screwed. So the doctor oddly added some humor. It was pretty funny.


Since we knew that our doctor's appointment was good and we are just concerned about being in the first trimester that we were ready to tell his parents. Again, I wanted to be creative with them too! We took the chocolate that my dad brought back from Belgium and put the bibs in there to hide them. We knew that if we showed up with a present that it might be a giveaway. So we showed up to his parents house and only his dad was home. I was a little bummed because we were excited to tell them. So we were just talking to his dad for about an hour and I was getting hungry and so we decided to leave without saying anything. Well when we were pulling out of the subdivision, his mom was turning in. So it was perfect. We turned around and went back to the house. Jeremy took the chocolate out of the car and then gave it to his parents and said, "Sam (my dad) brought his back for you guys.... I guess there is some kind of prize that you can win so you might want to open it up now". His mom opened it up right away and his dad went to put the chocolate in the house... it was pretty funny as Jeremy was like dad-- open it now! Jeremy's mom opened it up and she said "what does this mean.... are you telling me that you are pregnant, Sami? " There was a little confusion because they had found out on August 19th that they were going to be grandparents from Adam (Jeremy's brother) and Elizabeth.

Needless to say, everyone was very excited. They called my parents right away and have determined that this little one will be loved so much (which is everything that Jeremy and I could ever wish and want for our little one). They have decided that my parents will be known as grammie and gramps (this is what our dogs know my parents as and they are used to being called it). Jeremy's parents will be called grandma and grandpa.

We are very blessed that both sets of parents are ecstatic!!!
