Telling G-Daddy & nana

With my Mom, Kim and Chuck all aware of their grand baby - to -be ...there was still one last set  of grandparents to be notified! My Dad and Saleta live in San Antonio, so when Mason and I  decided to go to the TEXAS/BAYLOR football game in Austin on October 4th  we decided it would be the perfect opportunity to meet them halfway in San Marcos to break the news!

On Sunday morning, we picked up Connor and headed down South to meet them for lunch at a restaurant called Grin's, which is apparently a local Texas State watering hole, and a place that holds many memories for my Dad (and even more now).  Connor did not know about the baby at this point either and we looked forward to letting him in on his new role as Uncle, as well!

Once we made it to Grin's and were seated, we placed our drink orders. Connor was eyeing the Bloody Mary and asked me if I was going to get one - sadly I declined. Once we ordered our meals, I told Mason to go out to the car to go get a gift I had "accidentally" forgotten in the car. 

Saleta's birthday is coming up in a few weeks and I told her that we had an early birthday present for her. She had pinned a Bread Pan from Anthropologie on her Pinterest board a while back and I had purchased it for her months ago. It made for the perfect gift to share our news!

I took video footage of their reaction upon learning the news, but sadly I discovered on the car ride home that it did not record. I was heart broken! They had such a good reaction too! Saleta took about a minute to catch on to what she was reading and Connor was so surprised! Sometimes sneaky surprises and technology just don't mix! :( 

Thankfully, Saleta sent a few photos of her  posing with her gift and a shot of the new parents at lunch!

It was a very special day and I'm so glad that we were able to share the news with them in person! I'm also happy that our Baby has five extremely loving and overjoyed grandparents (and one great-grandparent) to share their life with! Sadly, when Mason and I were each born we had even fewer grandparents than that combined between the two of us. 

I'm beyond excited to share this blessing with them and very thankful for their love and support! Baby Guinn is truly lucky and so are we!
