Breaking the News


Though hopeful, I was careful not to presuppose a positive pregnancy result for fear of an emotional letdown. So, when the life-changing news broke, we were completely unprepared for any type of announcement or declaration to those closest to us. Instead, Parker and I spent that glorious Friday afternoon relishing together in utter delight and postulating on the exciting things to come.




We waited a couple of days to share the news with our families and close friends which sent many concerned souls into a tailspin, expecting the worst. But, in the end, the accumulated anticipation made for a pretty awesome reaction or two.

  2. I am so impressed you kept it together on the phone with the doctor. The minute they said pregnant I was a blubbering mess and forgot to ask any pertinent questions like due date etc. I ended up having to call back lol

    So happy for you guys!!
