How we told the Grandparents

I decided that since this was the last baby we would be having, I wanted to tell the Grandparents in a special way what we were having. So Ethan and I decided to surprise my mom at work one afternoon. We hopped in the car and went to a flower store. I had picked out flowers and had the florist make a bouquet for us to bring my mom. I put in the bouquet a pick that said "BOY" on it and stuck it in the flower arrangement. We went down to her office and I was hoping I would see her car in the parking lot. It was, so we carefully went into the front office. As we were approaching the door, I could hear her walking in the courtyard. So we rushed in the door so she wouldn't see us. The ladies up front asked if they could help me and I just told them I was here to surprise Anna, not to call her, I knew

where she was. So we headed down the hall and I let Ethan go ahead so she would see him first. She was pretty surprised to see us there and was loving up on Ethan. I gave her the bouquet and told her we were having another boy. She said she was the one supposed to be giving me flowers, not me giving her flowers! That's OK, it was a nice surprise and I wanted to do something special. She was Happy!

Now to tell Nick's parents. Well you can't go wrong with Chocolate in this family so I decided to bake a cake. A decedent, 2 layer, chocolate cake. In the middle I was going to put a blue layer of filling. That way when they cut into the cake they would know what we were having. When we got there I did a toll for who thought it was a girl and who thought it was a boy. It was I think 3 girl, 1 boy. Ha, ha, makes me laugh. Nick's mom got to cut into the cake and to everyone's surprise, it was blue! They are excited and we ate some pretty yummy cake!
