We have been holding out on telling my Dad till his birthday, when we would see him while on vacation over Labor Day weekend (15.5 weeks for those keeping track). We took he and Nancy out to lunch in a cafe in Savannah, GA and presented him with his birthday card. As we handed it to him, we said something like "we got you something little, and we're pretty sure you don't have one already." Inside, we wrote "Happy Birthday Grandpa-to-be!" and included a printout of a couple of the ultrasounds (I know, cheeeeezy). Robin and I were both relieved there was no heart attack, and also relieved that he and Nancy were very surprised and quite happy, as you can see in these pics.
Sadly, we have no photographic evidence of the reactions of other family members, but all were wonderfully memorable and unique to each of them. We will probably retell those announcements here as well very soon.

Did he do a WT shot with you to celebrate this news?
