We shared the news with Aunt Georgia and Granddad today. Thought it would be fun to tell them in person, and we won't be back in Birmingham until Christmas.
Georgia was so tickled. She immediately asked about our favorite gender-neutral colors, so she can start buying baby clothes. Such fun.
Granddad was a bit of a different story. We invited him over for lunch, and we were all sitting around the kitchen table, eating deliciousness. Here's a recap:
Brad: Granddad, we have some news.
Granddad: Yeah?
Brad & Robin: We're pregnant!
Granddad: Great. (editor's note: that's an intentional lack of emphasis in punctuation. if only there was a font that conveyed gruffness.)
Brad: Aren't you excited to be a great-granddad?
Granddad: Not particularly.
[cut to a half hour later]
Granddad: I think I'm going home.
We're pretty sure he was doing cartwheels on the inside. When we told him about the costumed rehearsal dinner, he insisted that he would not be there, and we could tell people that he was dressed as the invisible man. But he was there and had a blast (dressed as a grinning tourist).
Regardless, it was the funniest reaction we've had thus-far. We love you, (great) granddad!!!
