At 10 weeks, Mitch and I decided it was time to let our grandparents in on our little secret. Of course, I had been dying to tell anyone what was going on. I just had not decided when we should tell . I spoke to my father to let him know my last doctor's appoinment had gone well and he mentioned that he noticed Grandparent's Day was coming up (surely invented by Hallmark, by the way) on his planning calendar at work. I had never heard of this day before. But, never being one to pass up a situation decided this would be the day to tell all of our grandparents. Plus, my father and brother were going crazy seeing my grandpa every Monday at my Dad's office and not being able to say a word about the baby on the way.
So, we gave Mitch's grandparents in Arizona and North Carolina a call to tell them our news. We, also, headed to my grandfather's apartment in Alexandria and my grandmother's house in Arlington on Grandparent's Day. We had a great time visiting with my grandparents and each got a card with a tiny sonogram photo of their great-grandchild.
Here are some photos from the day. Notice all the posed of Mitch and I. My grandma kept finding roses in her garden to add to the photos:) Poor Mitch. If you know my mom and my grandmother, you should know they love pictures and nothing pleases them more then to make you pose over and over again. Mitch has been subjected to this for years now and he is a good sport. And, I don't mind because I have inherited this ridiculous love of taking pictures.
