After we had the news that my HCG levels were rising nicely my dear hubby couldn't contain himself and had to share with his mom and dad. At the moment my father in law is working in Libya and was there when we shared the news. His mom was visiting family in the states, so she was the first call he made. It wasn't until a couple days later that we finally reached Dad after playing a little phone tag...
So hubby tells his Dad, and he is over joyed! He loves being a Grandpa and as he gets older loves it more and more. We had decided we were not going to tell anyone else until we had heartbeat confirmation, and just went on our merry way from there. A little while later, my sister in law is congratulating me on the pregnancy, that we didn't tell them about. Enter the Happy news spreader...come to find out via Skype, my dear dad in law is spreading the news to everyone he talks too, from Libya! So much for keeping it quiet, haha! Funny thing is that it makes it easy on us, less people to tell. =) So another fun little tid-bit, everyone of the sisters-in-law on my hubbies side are expecting. I think this has Grandpa pretty thrilled, he is looking forward to next summer when he can hold them all at once on his lap for a photo-op.
To the man once called PooPa, until my little son many years ago thought he was supposed to call him Poopee... Glad we can keep you smiling, and happily spreading wonderful news!
What a great Grandpa! =)
