Our Big Surprise - Telling Mom K & Dad K

Every year at the end of June, Chris' parents come to visit us in Chicago!  Perfect!  We were so excited that we were able to tell them in person and not on the phone.  This was about a week and a half after we took the Pregnancy Test so we were very anxious to tell someone about OUR BIG SURPRISE!  

We picked them up from Midway Airport around 11:00 AM on Thursday, June 24, 2010.  It was about an hour drive back to our house with traffic!  Mom K said in the car, "I can't wait until you have a little one."  This was after we were talking about Caleb (our Nephew)!  I couldn't believe she said that...  Thankfully I was in the front seat and just smiled!

Since we hadn't seen Chris' parents since our Wedding in October, we wanted to be able to show them photos and our Wedding video.  Well...  We couldn't take it anymore. and wanted to tell them almost immediately when we got home!  This is how the conversation went...

Chris:  "Mom and Dad...  Did you sign our Guest Book from the Wedding?"

Mom K and Dad K:  "Yes!"

Chris:  "Well, we would like you to be the first to sign this... 

We had bought a BELLY BOOK (A 9-Month Journey) the day before we found out we were Pregnant!  It was the perfect book to surprise his parents.  Mom K knew right away and had the greatest expression on her face.  Dad K didn't get it right away...  But he sure did when I said, "WE ARE PREGNANT!"

Here is the photo of the reaction from Mom K and Dad K when we told them WE WERE PREGNANT!  I love her face!  Another PRICELESS moment!
