It's a... BOY!

Well- we knew we wanted to tell everybody in a special way if we were going to have a boy or a girl.. Everyone knew Matt wanted a boy. No questions asked, I honestly wanted a boy too, but I was afraid to really say either way because I didn't want anybody to think I was disappointed. Because no matter what I would love and be SO excited about the baby! We went to get our "gender reveal" ultrasound on September 19th! We closed our eyes and our Doctor put the ultrasound picture in an envelope so that Matt and I wouldn't even know! The waiting started... This was on a Friday and we had a party planned for Saturday afternoon. We immediately took the envelope to Cakes by Catie downtown and had her bake a cake. She was going to make the vanilla part either pink or blue so when we cut into the cake it would be revealed! The waiting seriously KILLED me. But it was nice since I couldn't even be tempted since the bakery had the ultrasound picture with what the sex was on it... All of our friends and family came to the house for our party and we had pink and blue snakes. Everyone picked either a pink or blue onesie to pin onto their shirt to determine what "team" they were on. We also played a game to say if we were having a boy or girl. The game was based off a lot of old wives tales- for the record it said we were having a girl....


This is the group of friends that came to find out what we were having! We are so lucky to have such a great group of friends!


Here we are about to cut it!.. The anticipation was ridiculous! 


IT'S A BOY! :):)


Here is the ultrasound picture that the bakery had! I am SO happy we did it the way we did.. It was so fun to find out with all our family and friends. We couldn't have done it a better way!
