Couple Creates a Clever "Game" to Tell Family They are Expecting a Baby

Mon, 12 Dec 2011 08:02:00 -0500

“My wife and I wanted a creative way to tell our immediate families that we were pregnant, and we wanted to tell them all at the same time. So, we got them all together for a Labor Day weekend BBQ to carry out our nefarious plan. :)

The video begins with my wife explaining the ‘game.’ Everyone was assigned a new nickname on the back of their place card, and when we told them, they would flip over their card and try to figure out why we assigned them that new nickname. The winner would be whoever guessed it first.

In reality, they weren’t really new nicknames, but rather, new names that they’d be called by our baby. So, for example, my brother became ‘Uncle’ and my wife’s parents became ‘Lola’ and ‘Lolo’ which are customary names for the grandparents in the Filipino culture.

As you can see, it took my brother about 1 second to figure it out and everyone else about 5 seconds after that!”

Woman Tells Husband She's Pregnant Through a Game of "Clue"

Mon, 07 Nov 2011 22:35:03 -0500

“On April 2nd, 2011, I took a pregnancy test (one of many over the past 2 years of trying). It was positive, and I really couldn’t believe it! On April 3rd, I took my second test, and the results were the same…I was finally pregnant!! My brother and I came up with a cute and fun way to tell my husband, Zach. We decided to play a game of Clue…except that the cards in the “confidential” folder were planted by me and revealed the surprise. Zach refused to play the game all morning long… and we had plans to go over to a friend’s house later on. Finally we made a deal that he didn’t have to play until we were at our Friend’s house. Zach had no “clue” until he finally read the cards! :-)”
