How We Announced

After finding out we we're pregnant we wanted to wait until after our first doctor's appointment to tell our family and friends. So we went in for our 8 week ultrasound and sure enough, there was a baby in there! It was a surreal moment for both of us to see our baby on the screen for the first time. It looked like a little bean! Luckily for us that coming week was Seth's 30th Birthday so both of our families were going to be together in one room which proved to be the perfect place to let them in on our little secret. I was so nervous and Seth was so excited to spill the beans. It was killing him to keep this secret from his family. We had everyone over at my parent's house for a little dinner and cake. We wanted to keep things simple but still gather everyone to celebrate. I just wanted to tell everyone as soon as they arrived because I was so nervous. I don't know why! I think you just imagine a moment like this for so long and when the time comes you want it to be perfect. We decided I was going to give Seth one of his presents from me and inside would be a baby outfit. We knew everyone would probably be watching him open gifts and give us the perfect opportunity to surprise them! I tried to film a sneaky video from the other side and you have to watch to see everyone's reactions! Seth's mom caught on soooo quickly! She said she had a feeling I was pregnant because Seth had recently told her I wasn't feeling well. My dad was so confused HAHA it took everyone a quick second to catch on before Seth announced... WE'RE PREGNANT!

I also wanted to loop in my best friends, but with only two of them in state and the rest out of state I shipped them these cute little gifts from Nothing Bundt Cake!
