I had this cute plan of telling Jake that we were pregnant on Father's day but I couldn't keep the secret to myself. Right after I got a positive test I ran downstairs where he was exercising and showed him the test. This is a picture of Jake on Father's Day when I gave him the baby Utah State t-shirt to tell him it's his last childless Father's Day. He is so excited!
We told my parents we were expecting by putting up this poster on the tennis court right before we went over to play doubles with them. We had to be very sneaky because my dad was right next door in the garden while we were putting this up and if he looked over we would have been caught! Good thing he was so preoccupied with his new irrigation pipes.
We did a little treasure hunt with clues and candy bars for the girls to tell them they're getting a new cousin. The last clue said, "Jake and Britt are having a 'Sugar Baby'!" Makenzie just kept saying, "Really? For real? You're not joking?" I think they've waited so long for a cousin on this side that it's hard to believe. Makenzie thinks it's a boy and we should name him Tom and Eliza thinks it's a girl and we should name her Sunshine!
The girls helped make these cupcakes so when Corine and Brody came to pick them up we had them unscramble them to tell them they're getting a new cousin.
Our nephews on Jake's side don't have any cousins so we had these t-shirts made and sent to them.
We sent these picture frames with the ultrasound to Jake's parents in Indiana. Jake told them we were having a baby over the phone before we sent these so they knew already.
We are so excited for our little baby to come! Jake wants a boy but I know he would LOVE a little girl and I don't really care either way just as long as we get a healthy little baby.
