Gift idea to spill the beans
I am not sure what to do, I had ordered my dad a case (5 barrels) of his favorite pretzels for Christmas. They used to sell them at BJs and no longer carry them anywhere.
I then got the idea to give him a deer, one of the light up ones for the yard. He has one for each grandchild in the back yard, so 3 so far....I thought if he opened another deer it might take him a minute but he should get it. He would open it in front of everyone too....makes me wonder who would get it first!
I could either have the deer be for both he and step mom, and then have R give the pretzels and a gift to grandma. I could also wait until mid Jan and give the pretzels to him then, but he loves them and would enjoy a barrel now! lol
Thoughts?

Re: Gift idea to spill the beans
I love love love the deer idea, I think he would just light up (no pun intended!) How are you feeling?? Have you told R yet, or will he find out when they do?
As for the pretzels, I would go ahead and give them to him, it would be a Christmas your dad will never forget!
The deer idea is a really cute idea. I would do it and give him the pretzels.
A few weeks ago we thought we might be pregnant again (I am not). I had a cute idea to wrap up a Big Sister shirt for Belle and make it from Santa. Then I was going to stick it under my mom's tree and have her open it in front of everyone. I may save this idea for next year since we decided to wait and start trying for #2 next October/November.
