I've been itching to blog this news for what feels like forever, but it wasn't my secret to tell. However, now that the real owners of the secret have put the news on facebook, I can tell the world that...
MY SISTER, SHARON, IS HAVING A BABY!!
**Cue the flash mob dancing, fireworks and other means of extravagant celebration!!**
Sometime shortly after Christmas, she and my brother-in-law will welcome a new little Someone, and all of us are thrilled! It's grandchild #14 for his parents, but for mine, it's #1!
Every grandchild will be special of course, but this one, by simply being first, gives each of us a new label.
Mom is now also Grandma.
Dad becomes Abuelo.
We three sisters are suddenly Aunties. (I became an instant aunt to the most adorable kids on the planet when I married hubby, but now I'll be an Auntie on both sides!)
Being the creative genius that she is, my sister came up with an adorable way to announce the pregnancy. Mom had been wanting a photo album of their wedding pictures for several years, so my sister created the books for both sets of parents and then placed a small card in the pocket in the back cover.
The front of the card said, "The adventure continues..."
...and here is what they saw on the inside!
My brother-in-law secretly caught their reactions on video, and it's absolutely priceless. Enjoy!

Oh my goodness, Cherise! This post was such a fake out! All I could see in my blog reader preview was "the secret is out" and an ultrasound picture! Lol
