    Congrats on your pregnancy!!!!!!!! This is great news. Have a romantic dinner after you put your 5yo to sleep. Make only baby portions on his plate.

    You could tie Its a Girl and Its a Boy balloons on the mailbox for when he gets home from work and when he walks in tell him surprise we are having a baby! lol not super creative but still cute I think! Congrats!

    Pour a glass of wine/beer for him and a glass of water for you -- see how long it takes him to figure it out!

    "i am such a big mouth when it comes to that"

    Heehee! Me too! I told FH on the phone while he was still at work. Of course, it was with our first child and a surprise, so I was so full of anxiety about how he would take it that I just blurted it out!

    Congratulations!!! very exciting. I would buy a onesie or any article of clothing and have it made to say 'were pregnant' or 'congrats, you're gonna be a dad) then rap it up as a normal gift and give him a sweet card to go with it Smiley smile you could give it to him after a nice romantic date.

    Have an ultrasound done to confirm the little bean...then, have the tech type "Hi Daddy" in the shot...frame it, and give it to him.

    Oohh Mayra.....It's only a week, that'd be AWESOME if you waited! Tell your photographer to make sure to be on the lookout and it'd be priceless to have that moment captured! I'd totally do it on your first dance!

    The onesie idea is cute. You could make it with " future (your new last name)" and give it to him the day of the wedding as your gift to him.

    Congratulations! I think you should tell him during your first dance, that would be so sweet.

    @Madison, I thought of the exact same idea LOL! that's what I want to do for our parents when we get pregnant but put - Congrats! your gonna be grandparents. You could also have a T-shirt made for FH that says something cute about him becoming a dad.

    I also like the idea of telling him during your first dance, after you exchange I love you etc.. say I have something to tell you then tell him, would be so special!!!!

    Congrats!!! I actually saw on Pinterest this cute thing, it was the actual pregnancy test with a tag attached that said "i can't wait to meet you daddy" I thought that was really cute!
