Telling Fam on Christmas

I will be 7 weeks on Christmas and DH and I would like to tell our parents that I am PG. We won't have a sono pic yet, so I was wondering if anyone had any cute suggestions on how we could tell them? TIA

How about giving them a Grandparents ornament as a gift to open? I would just hand them the gift, not say anything, and wait for the reaction as they process what they are seeing. Chat Icon Chat Icon

Telling Fam on Christmas

Congratulations to you! DH and I were just discussing this topic last night b/c I will also be 7w at Christmas. I found 2 ornaments online that I like. One is a baby carriage with a wreath around it and it says "Do not open until 2013, Love Santa" and the other one is a silhouette of Santa's sleigh and reindeer flying across the sky with a stork flying along side it.

DH's idea was to hang a little stocking next to our 2 stockings and just see who figures it out.

We told both sets of parents on Mother's Day, and got the grandmas onesies that said "I love my Grandma!".
