Baby #2 is a.....


So we decided to have a 'technology reveal' with our immediate families to share this moment with them. With Drew, Derek and I just opened the envelope at the Melting Pot and I wanted to be a bit more 'fun' with the reveal this time! I ordered cupcakes in Dallas and Kansas City for our fam to pick up with the help my of my friend, Virginia, who told the bakeries the sex. Then our parents and siblings all got on our laptops, ipads and phones to share in the occasion at the same time. The cupcakes each had a filling with either pink or blue and one bite in you could see what it was! Here are the Ohio, Kansas and Texas cupcakes...


I didn't even think about the fact that it would take Drew longer than us to get to the center, so I had to include the part where he finally got there and yelled out the color!

Enjoy! (there is sound)



Needless to say, we are all SO excited to meet this little one in just a few months!

    Awh, this made me all teary eyed. I love that you can hear your (mom? sister's?) squeals in the background. LOL. This is how we told my fam I was pregnant - all gone online on google chat for a fake reason and we sprung it on them. :) Fun to involve family that lives far away! Congrats on a little girl - I sure love my daughter!

    Awww, so cute!!!!!!!!! I've been thinking of ways to include my aunt (who is like my 2nd mom) in on our gender reveal since she's across the country. A bakery is a great idea! I may steal this to do with her.
