And it is the best SO far.
We finally got to Colin and Sherry's for dinner. We've been talking about this for the last few weeks (pre baby news) and the timing couldn't have worked out better. After a relaxing dinner and a full catch up we retreated to the living room, the girls had gone to bed and we had all sunken into the couch. Sherry had spent most of the night wrapped in a blanket recovering from the night before.
I poked Richard a dozen times waiting for him to bring it up, share are news, but he didn't. The night was winding down and we had gotten to the point of awkward silence, when we should excuse ourselves, thank our hosts and call it a night, but I refused to budge until Richard spilled the beans. I finally poked him and gave him the 'tell them' look. Sherry asked if we had something to share (but I suspect she already knew). I blurted out 'We're Pregnant!' and she shot off the couch like a rocket landing on top of me in a full bear hug.
They both grinned and congratulated us a dozen times. Colin kept looking at me and smiling. The conversation carried into the night... they relived the pregnancy and birth of their little girls and we shared our already awkward moments.
I am so glad I have a Mommy to talk too and thrilled Richard has a Dad to consult. Richard finally seemed to be excited about this whole thing... he had gotten the approval he needed.
So... that's it for sharing the news. We won't be telling anyone else until Christmas (I know, I know... yea, right?!)
Otherwise I'm feeling no different then last week... my boobs are sore and my lower back aches.
Stay tuned... Morning sickness should kick in this week. Ew.
Love!
