How to tell your parents?

Question

So I'm gonna put a shirt on my 17 month old saying "pink or blue? Either will do. Mommys  expecting #2" but what other ways is everyone telling their parents?

Answer

My mom and mother in laws bday is in October so we want to have the parents on both side over for dinner. The plan is to take a group pic with the cake and say "on the count of three say 'we're having a baby!'" And catch their reaction on camera. For the rest of the family we are telling them on thanksgiving which is in two weeks in canada. The plan there is for my husband to say grace at dinner and thank God for the baby we are going to have.
​ I'm super excited to tell lol this is our first and we're only six weeks but it's so hard to keep exciting news a secret.
