From Dad...
Immediately after we told the Hopkins, Carrie and I frantically drove over to my parents house. We had just left their house not 30 minutes before, so we thought that the family would all be there still eating dinner. Mom was the only one home. I quickly came up with a "reason" to be back at their house--I told my mom we were looking for my wallet. It worked. We looked around for a little while and left the house.
Meanwhile Jacklyn and Pops were shopping. Carrie and I parked a couple of streets over and waited for them to get back. We waited like 45 minutes--It was so nerve racking. As soon as they pulled in, we followed and snuck in the back door. Watch the video for the detail. I ran in the back and held up a pair of diapers (symbolic of all the dirty work forthcoming or just because babies poop). Everybody was really excited, especially after it all sank in (not on video). As we left Pops was jumping up and down. Even once he stopped jumping Moms had him jump up and down again for her (Moms was recovering from surgery a couple days before).
