Sharing the Good News

After 18 grand babies it was tough to decide how to tell everyone the good news. Sooo, we got creative. We decided to get a balloon for each grand kid and write their name on it (blue=boy and pink=girl). Then we put one white one with a question mark on it above the rest.























































Since it was around easter we also got a basket full of candy and 18 little bunnies (since our family pops em out like rabbits). It also had a pink egg with a little riddle inside that said. "19 babies in our family tree, one hasn't hatched because she's still inside of me." I drew a stick figure of myself pregnant too for more effect :)



















We also made my dad a "World's #1 grandpa (again !) shirt. I though about getting window stickers for each grandkid to put on his car but then i thought "how would he see?"

We were planning on surprising my brothers and sisters with the good news too but i guess 19 balloons are hard to hide because some of them saw the display and then news traveled fast.

Thanks for all your love and support you guys. Love ya!
