December 2013 Moms

How are you telling the big news?!

My boyfriend and I have only told very close friends and family. We are planning on coming out sometime after the 8week ultrasound next week or wait until we hit the second trimester.

When are you coming out and how?

I am trying to come up with something creative for Facebook for fun. Maybe a picture of me holding the HPT to my stomach or a picture frame with a note saying "Coming in December".
