Everyone has been thrilled with the news. There has been a lot of high pitched "EEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!" and screams. We found out on Father's day. We were able to get Sarah's whole family on the phone while they were out to 'Father's Day Breakfast' in Celebration, Florida (coincidence?). Sarah took pictures of the double-lined pregnancy test and sent it to her Mom's phone while she was on another phone with Dad. They all starting shrieking and laughing and asking 'Is this real?' and then the congrats came along from everyone and titles were proudly taken at once, Aunt Becky, Aunt Devon, Grandma Lori and Grandpa Bob.We spent the day with Shaun's family and shared the news with Shaun's Dad Randy as part of his father’s day present. Funny thing Grandpa was just gripping that morning about how he only has 1 grandchild. Hahaha......The sweet soon to be Baby McGrath gained 3 Uncles; Jesse, Jordan, Daniel, and an Aunt Michelle (Jesse's wife). Of course Sweet Baby McGrath will also be showered with love from Aunt Jeannie, Aunt Cindy, Aunt Candy and Uncle Bill.
So far Sarah has decided Dr. Zimmer of Bellgrove OBGYN will deliver Baby McGrath. She had blood work done yesterday and the results were great! She is hoping to have an ultrasound done on Friday to get the ‘real’ specifics.
Everything is a little funny so far. The alien-ish pictures you find on the internet that depict what your little baby looks like, which is the size of a sesame seed. The strange food that is now filling our fridge, and large amounts of ginger products that have taken over the kitchen, car, purse and office. It's all a little strange but AMAZING.
Stay tuned.....
Of course the family in Florida is already planning their trips to Washington to shower the newest addition to our family with love and give Sarah and Shaun a little R&R for a few weeks. Bobby and I value our daily calls from Sarah and love listening to all the latest details of how she feels, how Shaun feels and events that are being scheduled. Keep them coming!
