Results from the blood test came in today evening, and so we made the calls today on our way back from the Audi drive event.
Swati was lucky she was the closest to a sane timezone we could call :-) We asked her to "guess" and she was so apprehensive :-) She was like ... no, I don't want to guess, u tell me! Finally we told her. She was very happy and still couldn't believe it was already happening!
My mom was next. Amit asked her "Mom, did you unpack your bags already? I think we need you back here!" What followed next was just crazy. I could literally see her jumping around, she just couldn't contain herself. The fact that it happened while she was here was picked her curiosity the most. If we'd only found out before she left (13 Nov), she would have stayed for a while longer.
Amit's parents were next. We broke the news by telling Puppa that we'd pre-ordered his bday gift and it usually takes 9 months to be ready :-) Oh man, was he delighted! Mumma was very happy too. Everything was happening at the right time. Mumma being the absolute darling that she is, advised me to take it easy, no jumping around, no this, no that :-)
Dad was in Pune, so called him later at night. We asked him to "guess" the news, and he guessed it as "Am I going to be a grandfather?" Our positive response blew him away :-) He talked to us for 5 mins inspite of being in a meeting.
Finally got thru to Mandaar the next day morning and told him the big news! He was all ears, and kept saying "I am coming there to see the baby" ... yes, we will plan things out, lil' bro.
