Whew, what a relief! We mailed "grandma kit" packages to our moms yesterday and they both called us crying when they got them My moms been going crazy telling random people (like her Bed Bath abd Beyond cashier) all day! Ha...

It feels so weird that everyone knows though! I kept it my little secret for so long ya know? But everyones really happy and thats exciting.

Omg and my mom also offered to pay for dh and i go to on a cruise before baby comes how awesome is that? (we didnt go on a honeymoon). Where should we go ladies? lol.

Congrats! Glad the grandma's are so excited. And how great about going on a cruise. Most cruise lines want you to go before around 23 weeks so make sure you book early.

Yay!! I'm glad they were so happy! It's so crazy once people know huh? We told our families last weekend (i've just been slacking on posting recently). I'll have to post about it when i get the chance.

Wow Sam I didn't even realize that you were 13 weeks already !!! That is so exciting

[stlgirl]

Aww, I'm so happy they are so happy! And wow - what a great offer from your mom! The only cruise I ever took was a Disney cruise when I was a kid, so I don't really have any advice...but I'm sure you'll think of somewhere fun

YEA!! And extra special yea for getting a cruise out of it - how wonderful!!

[Oreobaby]

Very exciting...I'm glad telling the family went well!!!

[Elijah'sMommy]

How exciting! It's terrific when the family is so happy to hear you are preggo. That is so awesome of your mom to offer the cruise

[KCMomma]

WOW that's awesome that you get to go on a cruise before the baby gets here!!! I'm super impressed you waited this long to tell people. I was screaming it from the rooftops!! I did have a bit of anxiety after we told people though so I understand there! Let us know where you decide to go on your cruise!

[Sam914]

Thanks guys! Its honestly a pretty strange feeling now that everyone knows... kind of like theres more pressure to make sure everything goes okay now since i'll have to tell everyone if it doesnt! Its pretty much out of my hands though all i can do is eat, chill and grow a baby

As for the cruise, i'm so excited! we wanted to go on one for our honeymoon last year but a) after having my mom pay for our wedding i didnt feel right about letting her pay for a hm too and we didnt have the cash and b) dh didnt have any vacation days after the wedding anyway. I told her no but shes INSISTING we do it before baby sooo We went to Florida back in March but it wasnt really a HM because we took friends with us plus iv'e been there sooo many times its more like home to me there not really special. Anyway i'm rambling now. We're thinking Carribean or Bahamas, MAYBE Hawaii but it would be most ideal to leave out of Baltimore so i'll have to check out when everything lines up and works out. I"ll be thrilled with anywhere!

That's sooo great. I do commend your ability to keep it quite. I'm too weak and already spilled the beans!
