You could also let a cake tell the story. Just follow the instructions on a plain white box cake. Divide the batter in 1/2, add a bit of blue food coloring to one bowl and pink to the other. Pour each batter bowl into their own round pan and bake. Viola you now have a pink and blue layer cake when done. Frost as you normally would. Then have the grandparents over for dessert :)
Good Luck and God Bless!

I like the t-shirt idea. We did that with my parents when I was pregnant. Since my daughter was the first grandchild we made T-shirts that said Grandma 08 and Grandpa 08. They really loved it. Since it is the fourth grandchild, maybe Grandpa to the 4th power?

How about putting and extra place at the table? When they ask you who else is coming you let them know that the guest wont be there in person for another 35 weeks but is currently in the room anyway. Or something like that.

You can put number 4's all over the house. When they ask what's with the number tell them you are just trying to get used to seeing it everywhere since there will be 4 kids in 9 months.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Maybe have your youngest put on a t shirt one night when the grandparents tuck her in that says "Soon to be Big Sis"
you can just paint it or buy printable sheets at Michael's
I think they'll be so ready to read her a story or whatever your routine is that they won't expect that. If that'll be too much excitement at bedtime, then have her put it on first thing in the morning.
Congratulations! May God bless this sweet announcement!

Hello! We did the announcement with a baby picture frame with a place holder picture showing a question mark and an eta date. Looked really cute. You could hang it somewhere around the dinner table or give it to them as a gift.
Congratulations to your new addition!
