On Saturday, I spoke to India and Boo (two of the cousins to be) to tell them our news. Auntie Rosie put me on loudspeaker and the response to "I'm going to have a baby" was silent, wide eyed and open mouthed! This was followed by giggles and a few excited yays - the girls were excited to hear Lily Allen was having a baby so to find out Auntie Lizzie was too was even better.
Boo thinks you will be a little boy (as does Auntie Kerry). Daddy thinks you're a little girl but we don't mind either way so long as we have a healthy little one with ten fingers and ten toes.
After I got off the phone, Auntie Rosie showed the girls your photo. It took a little explaining but Boo now understands how you're tiny at the moment (to fit into my tummy). She also knows how you'll come out... That's just REALLY funny! Not so funny for Mummy...
On Sunday, we had lunch with Daddy's family so now Grandad and Great Gran know our exciting news. I think it came as a bit of a surprise but we had a text from Grandad enthusing later that day when it had had time to sink in.
By Sunday night, we'd gone public on Twitter and Facebook too so I think it's safe to say pretty much everyone knows now.
It's lovely to have so many people so excited for us and excited to meet you :o)
