We're now in the phase of telling friends and family that we are expecting. This started last week when we saw both of our families over Thanksgiving weekend. We made the announcement by giving our parents an "early" Christmas gift that was actually an article of baby clothing with a message referring to "grandparents". My parents got the message immediately... Donna, on the other hand was a different story. For some reason, she thought that someone was playing a joke on her (we had placed the gifts on the porch, rang the doorbell, and walked away).
Amongst our friends, it's funny to see the difference in reaction between those who have kids (or are expecting) and those who don't. The ones who do have kids tell you congratulations with about the same excitement that they would have about their own child. Those who don't have kids will give you the customary smile and "congratulations".
We passed a milestone this week, too. Last night marked the final hormone injection shot for Alysia - so much for our nightly ritual! The next milestone might be the first day when Alysia has more to eat than me... I'm sure that's still a long way off, though. ;)
Until next time...
