Telling the Kirkwood Family

The very next weekend we went to the Ann Arbor, MI area for Abby and Aaron's well over due wedding celebration. Abby (Jim's older sister) had just found out she was pregnant and due May 15th... exactly 4 days before me! So to tell the Kirkwoods we brought cards for the soon to be "Grandma and Grandpa". They were completely shocked! To find out in the same week that they were going to be having not one, but TWO grandkids arrive in May 2007. How exciting! The next day we surprised Abby and Aaron with two onesies... one said Elowsky... the other said Kirkwood. Although we thought this would be a dead give away... They thought we were giving Abby a hard time cause she hadn't changed her name yet to Elowsky. So Jim quickly stepped in and let them know that we were expecting a baby too. Then came the tears and laughter... Grandma Connie was crying and crying cause she was so excited to be having TWO great grandchildren... Grandma Ruth was definitely shocked too but also excited to have two new additions coming to the family!
