RP from 1st tri: Big Sis Tshirt--near FAIL!
I've been meaning to post this since last weekend, but here goes!
Went to my parents last weekend with DD wearing a "Big Sis" Tshirt! My mother noticed, but was afraid to say anything (for like an HOUR!) (in case I'd just bought it on sale or it was a hand me down or something!) My father had absolutely no clue!! After waiting FOREVER for someone to say something, I gave my mom a mini photo album that I'd written "brand new brag book" in the cover insert and had the ultrasound pic inside!
Finally! We have a reaction! But my DAD, when shown the book STILL didn't get it, thinking that it was an old ultrasound picture of NORA-UGH!
Fortunately, Mom explained through her happy tears. Moral-if you're going for the t-shirt plan to announce the 2nd baby, have a backup plan!
The
next night was my brother's birthday, we pasted a copy of the
ultrasound pic in his card and signed it from the three of us and his
"brand new niece or nephew" ! This one got the appropriate
response-hooray!

We got a shirt too and took a picture of P wearing it and emailed it, and my brother responded, why is he wearing a shirt that says big brother? UGH! He got it eventually.
Glad everyone was excited for you once they got it figured out!
