Birth Announcement
"They're here they're here!" an excited Sarah came racing in from the mailbox.
Jesse and Beca couldn't guess what had Sarah so excited. Beca was sitting at the kitchen island relishing the ability to eat without vomiting. She had moved into the second trimester and they had decided it may be safe to tell people about the baby. They just had made no decisions how they were going to do that.
Sarah came into the kitchen waving a box a little bigger than a standard envelope about 4 inches thick. She put it down on the island while she hunted for a knife to cut into the packaging.
Jesse and Dane came into the kitchen curious to the loud exclamations from Sarah.
"Ah perfect! Dane look, I told you it was perfect." Sarah handed her brother one of the picture cards she took from the box. Dane smiled handing the card back to his sister.
Sarah handed Jesse the card as she exited the kitchen with "I have the envelopes in the other room ready to go."
Jesse looked down at the picture on the holiday card doing his very level best not to laugh.
It was a picture of Dane and Sarah holding the ultrasound photo they had gotten just a few weeks before. Beside the picture was the greeting:
Mom should have just gotten dad a watch for his birthday.
Happy New Year from the Swansons
Jesse, Beca, Dane, Sarah, and Spoo
Beca glanced over Jesse's arm. "I'm too tired to kill her. You do it"
