Gender Reveal

Of course I had to make a big deal about revealing the gender to our families. We found out Monday and it has been so hard not to tell everyone but I wanted to wait until I could get a majority of them together before spilling the news. Last night, my sister Holly returned from Germany so I asked my other sisters to come to my dads house to welcome her home. Unfortunately they saw right through my plan and asked if we knew the babies gender. I didn't answer my sisters questions so they knew we were going to find out something.

My friend and Jack's babysitter Chelsea stayed after I got home from work and helped me make the cake. So glad she did because I would have totally failed without her help! Once everyone got to my dads I set up the video camera, brought out the cake and and we cut in to find a pink cake! IT'S A GIRL!!! I made a cupcake with pink icing inside to share the news with my mom and a gluten free cake for my in laws. I get to take my mom to work today so she'll find out then and my in laws are coming over for dinner tonight so all the family will know by this evening.

We are really excited to have a little girl expecially since she will have a big brother to protect her. Jack is going to be a great big brother too :) Now let the nursery decorating begin! I was originally planning a yellow and grey "you are my sunshine" theme but I might have to throw some pink in there now. I'm sure I'll post my ideas soon....
