The day after Christmas, we were able FaceTime my family for Christmas. I
was so anxious to share the news, that it was hard to wait until after
presents. Of course, Lara already knew I was pregnant, but she had no
idea I was having twins. So, I was looking forward to her reaction when
she found out.
I loved the way that Kurt causally said Katie's pregnant, so I decided
to go with that approach. The gifting had ended, & I said, "By the
way, I'm pregnant." Mom & dad were excited for us. I think they knew
it was coming, so they weren't caught of guard, but as soon as things
calmed down, I said, "And, they're twins." Lara said, "You're joking."
(People must think I would joke about such things because she's not the
first one to say that... KURT.) Of course, I said that it's for real
& everyone started to laugh & giggle in shock. I can tell that
everyone is as surprised as we were to hear the news. Their reactions
were more like processing reactions. I could tell they were trying to
figure out how it was possible & how different it is compared to
having just one baby.
It was so much fun sharing the news yet again! I think that it being
something people don't expect to hear makes it even more enjoyable to tell them :)
