Meeting with THE PARENTS!

Both sets of parents are driving up for the day tomorrow. We will be telling them our wonderful news. I will be 7 weeks. They know NOTHING of our plans so I am not sure how they will react. They are all 4 in their mid seventies and I am praying this embryo adoption talk does not COMPLETELY freak them out.

This is how we will initially be telling them-with our littlest one coming out in this shirt except it is Black and our boys name is not Gavin :) And then of course we will be showing them our sonogram pictures!

HMMMM...should be an interesting day!

As for me, I am nauseous and exhausted AND THANKFUL FOR IT!

  5. How cute!

    Once they see that sonogram I'm sure any reservations they had will be gone!

    Hope you have a great time revealing the news!

  7. Not sure if my comment got posted, so I'll try again! Can't wait to hear the details! Is the shirt going to list all the sibs? If my mom at lat 70's could handle it so can yours! Glad you're nauseated and tired, girl! Great work!

  8. Ah, breaking the news to the folks. Good luck! You know I struggled a bit with that one myself. But one way or another our parents are always happy for us and get used to the idea. I guess you could tell them embryo adoption is just like regular adoption, except that you "take over" before the baby is born! I look forward to hearing how it goes.

  10. Expect LOTS of questions... it is hard for many people of any age to comprehend, simply because they have never heard of it; and the logistics don't make sense at first. But I am sure they will be THRILLED!! We didn't tell my husband's mom till the twins were 3 years old that they were adopted as embryos - lol. I was SOOOOOOO nervous, but after the initial shock and questions; she was SOOO supportive and happy!!! Now she is an advocate for embryo adoption too. :)
