How we told Josh's family...

The weekend after we told my parents we made the trip up to Midlothian, eager to tell Josh's family. My Dad suggested we get a football and put "future Aggie Class of 2033" (wow, that seems like forever). Josh loved the idea and he even decided to put a sonogram picture face down that you had to flip up to see. It was his little project and I loved seeing him so excited about it.



After dinner, Josh was being bossy and said "everyone needs to go shower and meet us back in the living room." I guess this was his nervous instinct, I kept telling him to chill out. Once we got everyone together, we gave them a "housewarming" present. (they have a new house in Garland) His Mom, Dad, and Daniel knew what it was right away. But poor Seth, as you can tell by his face it took him a while! (he's the shirtless one)



We were sad that Caleb wasn't able to be there. But he is a busy college student. So we told him over the phone. His reaction was priceless. I will try to upload the recording so you can hear it.

We had such a nice weekend. Saturday night, we told his grandparents, aunt, and great grandmother. There were tears, laughter and lots of hugs. Baby Russell, you are one loved kid!
