  • I told my future father in law by getting him a shirt that says "#1 Grandpa" and wrapped it in a yellow bag.  When he opened it he almost fainted and started jumping up and down!  Needless to say the shirt went right on and I doubt he has taken it off since!  I broke the news the same way with my future sis in law and mom in law as well.  It seemed to be a really cute way of doing it. =)

  • We are celebrating my dad's birthday tomorrow, so I'm baking him his favorite cake and giving him a, "Happy Birthday Grandpa!" card :)
  • I know this is a totally late post but this is how I told my mother with this poem on a throw blanket. For our dad's we got the T-shirts with "My Grandpa Rock!"

    I do not have a face to see,
    Or put inside a frame.
    I do not have soft cheeks to kiss,
    I don't yet have a name.
    You can't yet hold my tiny hands,
    Nor whisper in my ear.
    It's still too soon to sing a song,
    Or cuddle me so near.
    But all will change come November,
    That?s when they say I'm due.
    I'm your new grandson or granddaughter;
    I can't wait till I meet you.
    All I ask between now and then
    Is your patience while I grow.
    I promise I'll be worth the wait,
    Because of all the love we'll know.
    So what I have to give you now,
    Is a wish to you from me.
    I cannot wait to be a part   Good luck and congrats!!
  • You could buy him Father of the Bride 2! :) I meant to do that for my dad w/ DD.. but I got impatient and just told him over the phone (my parents live across country).
