How I Shared the News With Hubby-Pregnancy Number 1

Of course, the excitement over my first pregnancy was unlike any other. I COULD NOT WAIT to share the news with my husband. After I got a positive pregnancy test, I created a paper jigsaw puzzle. I hid the pieces throughout the house while Hubby took his morning shower. (We were foster parents at the time and our one year old foster son thought hiding the pieces was the best thing ever. Added to my excitement even more!)

On the back of each puzzle piece, was a clue directing my husband where to look next. I hid them in crazy places like inside a cereal box and between plates stacked in the cupboard. The finished result looked like this...


Sorry for the poor photo quality. I had to take this from my daughter's scrapbook.
