Ha! I got my dad, too. We were at the humane society, processing paperwork, and I called him.

"Dad, are you sitting down? You're going to be a grandparent again."
"AlRIIIIGHT! That is fantastic! Fan-tastic! When are you expecting?"
"About twenty minutes."
"WHAT?!?!"
"Eva and I are adopting a beagle puppy at The Humane Society."
"You dirty-- Hahaha-- Is she trained to hunt rabbits yet?"

And congratulations on your family addition. We've talked about that, too, but we already have two kids. Besides, dogs will listen and are easier to train.
