Cracking the Secret!

Since I found out I was pregnant at the first of December, Cody and I decided to tell our families for Christmas! We tried and tried to think of the best way to tell them and decided to do it through presents.
We found the cutest western shirts, and since we didnt know what we were having we bought a boy and girl shirts. We wrapped the boys and the girls in seperate boxes and had our moms open the girls and our dads open the boys.
We spent Christmas at the Pehrsons this year so Dave and Carrie were the first to know.

Here are the pictures:

Cody's parents: Carrie and Dave

Carrie: Really? Dave: Twins?

Carrie's reaction was priceless! She was so excited and started the holler and shout! Such a good surprise.

Next was my parents. We had to practically talk them into opening the presents. Since it was after Christmas they didnt think we should have gotten them more presents. But they LOVED these presents!

Gary: REALLY!? REALLY!? REALLY!?
Angie: Twins?

It was so fun to see their reactions and funny how both set of parents said the same thing.
 Since we told the parents so early on, we decided to have them keep the secret to themselves and we waited to tell the rest until I was a bit farther along.
We didn't get pictures of when we told the rest of my family. We had just gone to one of my little sister's basketball games and we went to diner with the family. We had our ultrasound pictures and we have some little cowboy booties for the baby and we had  Quincee open the booties. She said, "Well these won't fit me!" then she said, "These are for a...... BABY!" Her reaction was priceless too.
Rylan was happy, but on the way home she said to my grandparents with a tear in her eye, "I'm not going to be the baby!" Ha ha, My grandparents told her how fun the baby will be and she is super super super excited now! She sees something for a baby and tells the grand parents that we HAVE to get that for the baby! I guess she at first thought we were all going to forget her, but who could forget our baby Rylan!? ha ha

Its so comforting to know that we have great familes standing behind us. Our baby will be well loved and sadly so spoiled! ha ha
