Breaking the BIG News to Eldest Twerp

So I picked ET up from school yesterday and said I HAVE SOME BIG NEWS. But we can't share it with anyone. But I have to tell someone. Then I asked her if she could keep a secret and she said YES, of course. But you've probably already told your make believe blog friends. Don;t you judge me, ET. Don't you judge me!
Then I told her in a voice that was probably too high pitched for humans to intercept (but dogs were all over it) that there was gonna be new life bursting forth. That right now as we speak cells were doubling and HCV levels were tripling and ooohhhhhh...fallopian tubes were tubing. And she gave me this look. She is a to-the-point kinda person. We are exactly alike and all.
And I said...someone has LIFE growing in their belly. And when that LIFE comes forth, you will be related to it...
The she looked at me and said, "YOU?"

And I said "Do you want it to be me?"

And she said, "No."
OK -- then I told her who it was....and she was all cool and stoked and happy and she squealed.
But wait, there is more....Possibly 4 more.

Amen.

I'm new here, but do you have a sister who is pregnant? My three drive me up the wall some days, I couldn't imagine FIVE at once!

Linda said...

Is it puppies?????

Caroline said...

You're growing a life in your belly but you're not pregnant. This much alone is confusing. I have no clue...have you put on 5 pounds or something? HA...like that's possible!
Jeez! I can't figure this one out.

Caroline said...

Ahhhhh, nevermind...someone ELSE has life growing in their belly, not you. You have a pet expecting a litter!!! *does a dance*

Anonymous said...

Treasia Stepp said...

Are you adopting again? If so excellent.

Linda said...

Wait! Wait! Wasn't your cousin just here!? Is your cousin having a litter????

Dana and Daisy said...

Dreams of a Country Girl said...

nope, not my rich cousin. she is done.

Dana and Daisy said...

I thought maybe, but wasn't sure, if maybe you know she was adopting or something.

Hey, that other cousin of yours who had the new baby girl last year who we all crooned over at the pool party?

Dana and Daisy said...

FEATHER!

Dana and Daisy said...

If it is Marchelle, than I am sooo jealous she told you first!

Dreams of a Country Girl said...

Linda said...

CRAP! This should be easier. Right?

Dana and Daisy said...

I think this is such a sweet woman to woman thing you did telling ET about it! Female bonding! You're awesome CG!

Dana and Daisy said...

you know I never give up on a challenge like this.
I think it's the girl in the pics below with the green short and the black vest and ball cap.

It's the way you all are crowded around her like you're all happy and lifting her up!

Marchelle said...

I am not a make believe blog friend ET! Just cuz you would rather hang out with your cousins than meet me, whateva!!!! =(
I will be coming down there one of these days and we'll be BFF's and braid each others hair.

Dreams of a Country Girl said...

Dana and Daisy said...

J said...

Is there more than one person back home that is pregnant? or are you talking one person here? 5 babies!! My goodness!! I wouldn't know whether to laugh or cry if that was me...probably I'd have to do both!

Karen Kolb-Spencer said...
