Saturday October 9, 2010...Telling Extended Family About Baby Bug


Dear Baby Bug-

Today was a super special day- it was the day that you became public knowledge to the rest of the Walter family! We started the day by going to Corn School which is hard to explain now but something you will hopefully experience for many years in your lifetime. You should have been super satisfied because we got to eat an elephant ear AND a carmel apple while we watched the parade. Corn School is a lot of fun but only in small doses. Once we saw the parade, walked around, and ate some good food, it was time to head back to your great grandma and grandpa's house.

Great Grandma and Grandpa Walter had all of your great aunts, uncles, and cousins over for a haystack dinner today at my request. Once everyone got started with dinner, Mommy gave Great Grandma and Grandpa a present to open. It was a picture frame with your first sonogram picture and once they realized what it was, they were so excited! Both your Great Grandpa Ned and Great, Great Uncle Bernard had suspected that I was pregnant but they didn't know for sure until today. As expected, everyone is so excited for you....especially Great Grandpa and Great, Great Aunt Lou. Great Grandpa told everyone he could find about you and Great Great Aunt Lou and Uncle Bernard gave you your first stuffed animal- a stuffed duck!

One of the best things about this weekend is that Grandma Cindy can finally tell everyone about you. She has been dying of excitement keeping this secret and now she can tell whomever she wants that you are on your way! We are officially 12 weeks today, so Mommy feels a lot better about sharing the news with everyone who wants to know. You just have to keep healthy and grow strong...everyone's depending on you to come out in April and be ready to be spoiled!
