Thanks everyone!

Thanks for the overwhelming response about our baby!  It helped sooo much to share it with all of you ladies, because we're planning a Christmas surprise for our parents, and are keeping it a secret for now!  Only a couple people even know we had an u/s yesterday.  We've only told 3 friends and the Nest the results    :)   So it's been very hard for us to be overly happy about it - and very difficult to stay neutral when talking to family!

DH was very cute about everything.  I turned to him and asked if it was okay that we were having a girl, and he got the biggest grin on his face.  He said "of course it is, with the timing of everything, I never imagined it would be any other way."  I feel so blessed that he loves the name Amelia as much as I do, and it wasn't even a 2-minute discussion that we'd use my grandma's name.

Re: Thanks everyone!

  • That is going to be so special for your family when you reveal it is a girl and are naming her after your grandma. How are you going to tell them?? I think that will be the best part when I am pg and get to reveal it to my family. I'm already trying to think of creative ways to do it. :)
  • I'm going to make it a present that they open up.  So far only MIL knows we went yesterday, so hopefully she will be the only one that expects something at Christmas.

    For my parents, I was going to decorate a pink picture frame with her name on it and put an u/s pic inside.  For DH's parents, probably just decorate the frame with "it's a girl!" or something like that, because I'm not sure how excited they will be about the name.

  • I don't remember if I posted below, but congrats! What a great time of the year to find out and share with your family! Do you have any fun ideas on how you are going to share the news with everyone?
  • p.s. I absolutely LOVE the name..it's beautiful! :)
