So I got up this AM to POAS on the new FRER to give to my mom today... well, actually I PIAC and dipped it. haha. We video tapped it in progress which is kinda neat if you wanna see that. I edited out like a minute cause it got boring. haha



So then I wrote on it and put it in its little box to give to my mom this afternoon-




(gotta Twilight it...)




So then I went to Mass and I got sick during mass... all of a sudden I was hot/clammy and feeling like I might pass out so I went to the bathroom to sit down and splash water on myself. Thankfully it didn't raise my mother's suspicions. haha

We had lunch and then DH drove Granny home, since we only plan on telling my parents until 12 weeks. So my mom was in the backyard watering flowers and I made my step-dad come down to watch her open her gift. Here is the video of it... I wish my stupid bra wasn't hanging out. haha. Oh and my second line, which is barely audible is "we brought this back from Mexico..."



After the initial shock wore off, both my mom and step-dad were pretty stoked. My step-dad is not happy he can't tell people yet. haha.





Pretty much instantly after that DH had to go b/c he's shooting a wedding tonight so I stayed with my mom for a couple hours and we talked about it all.

Glad it went well... so not looking forward to when we have to tell the ILs!

She laughed alot, it looks like she's in shock and trying to add things in her head!

FYI, Zack is looking over my shoulder saying "mommy, I hope I have a slide like that, and a pool. That slide is yellow." lmao.

Tell him I want an awesome playhouse in my backyard like his!

... I keep re-watching this video. I can't not crack up listening to my mom laughing hysterically like that... it's so clearly like this nervous laughter where she's trying to put it all together. I was so glad after all this week to have her know so we could talk about it... she's really excited!
