We've decided that Fathers Day weekend will be announcement weekend, since we'll be able to see just about everyone in our families then in those two days. We have Cousin Elana's 2nd birthday party on Saturday, and then we'll be seeing other relatives on Sunday. The problem is making the announcement at Elana's party without upstaging the birthday girl. Really, I wouldn't want to cross Elana, as she has mastered the art of the dirty look and can give you a verbal lashing in the sweetest voice imaginable. So we have to be subtle.
We've decided Peter will wear a T-shirt that says "I'm getting a brother or sister..." on the front and "...but I'd rather get a fra fra" on the back. We just have to hope he doesn't blurt out "baby in mama" in public. So far he's only done it at home, and only when goaded into it, so we should be safe. But he's in the midst of his verbal explosion, and you can't be sure of what he's going to say at any given time.
I will be happy when it’s out in the open. I’m worried that we won’t be able to come up with a good casual denial of an offer of hard liquor or soft cheese.
