Week 7- Telling Adam and Elizabeth

Since we knew we were prego when they told us they were prego, but wanted to keep a secret for after the doctor's appointments how were we going to tell them??


I looked in the store for aunt and uncle stuff but couldn't find anything. So Jeremy and I had to be creative. On September 2nd after we told his parents, we went to dinner. After dinner we had to return Adam's hard drive to his house, again this was perfect because they would not be expecting anything. We went over to their house with Jeremy's parents. We had Jeremy's parents wait in the car because it would have been a give away if they walked in with us. So we just had normal conversation with them for about 10-15 minutes. They had just gotten a new bed so we were trying that out. It is very nice and will be good for Elizabeth during her pregnancy! So after just talking, Elizabeth told me that she is gonna try and sell Lia Sophia and wanted me to have a party. Adam was more into the tax deductions with having a business, which I explained to him about a home-office deduction. Needless to say this was a great intro into telling them we were expecting too. So Jeremy said "you get a tax deduction still for the baby in 2009...... and guess what....so will we!" So that is how we officially told his brother and sister in law. Of course they were happy for us, but I knew that Elizabeth wasn't exactly thrilled because she immediately said "You are ahead of me aren't you?".



Our due date is April 22nd and Adam and Elizabeth's is April 23rd. So our babies will grow up together and will have a play mate. This will be great for the kids as Jeremy and Adam are super close and we see the benefits of that. So hopefully that will transfer over to them being cousins!



So now Pam and Dan will have 2 grandchildren in April so they are super excited about that they even have moved their annual Florida vacation to March so they will not miss the births of their grandchildren. Now they just have to plan around the showers! This is greatly appreciated because that would hurt if they did miss the birth of their grandchildren. We are very fortunate to be thought of in this way that both of our kids are very important to all.
