As Lillian was born at the end of 2020, during the coronavirus pandemic, the couple were unable to tell their friends and family in person, and so they decided to call on the help of their daughter this time around.

Having broken the news to an excited Lillian, the couple set up a series of surprise announcements in Houston, Dallas, and Dripping Springs in Texas, and Little Rock, Arkansas.

For the surprises, which took place in September and October, Lillian entered different rooms wearing her bright pink “Big Sis” t-shirt.

As soon as Madeline and Michael’s friends and family clicked what this meant, they let out a series of stunned expressions – all of which Madeline was able to capture on video.

Some surprises drew out such incredible reactions that Lillian has attempted to recreate them since.

Madeline, who is expecting another girl on April 27, 2025, said: “I was pregnant with Lillian at the end of 2020, COVID time, so we were not able to tell anyone in person, and I was so sad to not be able to do that.

“Once we found out we were pregnant this second time, I knew I’d drive all over the US to tell those I could in person.

“Everyone we surprised will be the ones celebrating this new baby the most.
