< Monday >

Today I'm 8 weeks pregnant. Ashton's turned the whiteboard calendar in the kitchen into the tracker. He's so excited.

Our plan for today is to tell our friends and family. After we tell them, we're posting it on Instagram that I'm pregnant. We know that with paparazzi it's not going to be a secret for long.

We're going to tell our friends in a fun way. Each couple is getting a different way of telling. We figured they wouldn't get mad so we thought it'd be fun for them. Our families on the other hand, probably won't be as chill. They won't be mad, they'll just be shocked and maybe disappointment since Ash and I haven't gotten married yet.

Ashton bounced into the room this morning, coffee and his laptop in hand. He got back in bed and sat with his back against the headboard. I groaned and sat up too as he pulled up FaceTime. We decided to call Anne first. She'll be the easiest family member to tell. I don't think she'll get upset.

Ashton clicked on his mom's name and it started ringing. It didn't take long for her to pop up on the screen, Harry and Lauren right beside her,

"Oh my! Hi baby! Hi Hannah!" Anne beamed,

"Hi Mum" Ashton chuckled and I waved, "Laur? Harry? What's up?"

"I'm bored is what's up!" Harry complained. Ashton then nudged me, signaling to me that he was going to tell them,

"Yeah Hannah and I got so bored we made a baby" Ashton shrugged it off nonchalantly,

"Wh- Oh my god! What! I'm going to be an Aunt" Lauren yelled and started jumping around. I couldn't help but smile. Anne looked a little confused,

"You okay Mum?" Ashton questioned as his hand found mine,

"I'm going to be a grandma" she teared up,

"You're going to be a grandma" I smiled,

"How pregnant are you?" Harry piped in, making Lauren hit him,

"Dumbass, it's how far along are you" her eyes rolled,

"Today is 8 weeks so about two months" I answered.

The chatter continued. We talked about the baby a little and Anne asked me some questions on how I've been so far. But that wonderful call soon ended and we had to call my parents,

It felt like it rang forever before my parents picked up. As soon as they were on the screen, my hands got all clammy and I pulled it out of Ashton's hand,

"Good morning!" Ashton beamed,

"Good morning you guys! Still holding in there?" My mom asked,

"We are. It's weird how everything is now" I laughed.

"I know" my mom sighed,

"So what do we owe this call too," my dad asked.

Moment of truth.

"Mom, Dad, in January, you guys are going to be grandparents," I told them. My mom's eyes widened and she started tearing up with joy like Anne did. Dad was straight-faced,

"I know this was unexpected, but we're okay. We've got everything under control. I promise to you I'll take care of your daughter and this baby" Ashton spoke up,

"This is just all so soon. You all just got engaged" my dad sighed, "But I mean you guys are adults. And I've always wanted to be a grandpa" my dad now smiled. I saw Ashton relax a ton, just like I did,
