Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice...: Capturing the Moment

Our first prenatal appointment was October 21st. Colby and I were so excited to share the news with our parents and my brother. After finding out I was pregnant, I immediately called my brother. Yep, he was the first to know! He was actually at work so I shared the news really quick! My exact words were "I just changed your name in my phone to Uncle Marty!" He said "No way!" He was really excited! Now, I'm on the look out for one of those bibs that say "My Uncle's Hot and Single!" (He really is the best brother ever!)
On October 23, we decided to cook out with our parents one weekend before it got colder and of course, tell them they were going to be grandparents! We decided that we would take family photos. The last picture would just be the parents and we would say "Say pickles" while taking the first picture. Then we would say "Say Brandy's pregnant" and then capture their expressions. Being the jokester that Colby is, they did not believe him at first. I had to say "I really am" for them to believe us! I'll let the pictures below explain their reactions. I gave each set of grandparents a picture frame and I gave Colby a frame and book. Of course, I couldn't leave out my sweet Dakota. She got a shirt that said "Big Sis" and I know she wore it proudly! There were many smiles and tears shed that day! It's amazing how much this child is loved already!
