This Sunday we had our family and a few friends over for the big reveal. Is it a boy or a girl? Well....

| The pups played along and predicted boy or girl |
We started off with snacks and a few baby games. B made a trivia-like questionnaire that asked people to predict the gender, birth date, hair color, eye color, length, etc. It was fun seeing everyone's responses. We will have a prize for the winner - the person that was closest in all their answers.
Then we played a game I found on another blog, where Old Wives Tales are read and we answer to predict boy or girl. We ended up with a few "in betweens" but girl won 7 to 5. Mostly because I've been sick and crabby, which totally shouldn't be girlish symptoms. :)
Then the big reveal... I researched ways to reveal for WEEKS and B and I decided cupcakes would be the best (and yummiest!) way to tell everyone. I read somewhere that using mini cupcakes is the best because that way everyone can bite into the middle at the same time. I went that route and baked 24 mini cupcakes. I used an icing bag and tip to squeeze the correct icing color in the middle, then iced over the tops of the cupcakes. We counted to 3 and let everyone take their bite. And the baby is a....
GIRL!!!! The icing inside was pink!

| Team Pink! (my hair was out of control!) |
Missing from Team Pink are Aunt Emily and Uncle Chip, who couldn't leave the mountain because of the bad weather... but they were on the phone for the big reveal!

| Team Blue! (although I must say, B predicted girl too, but we wore opposite colors so we wouldn't give it away since we already knew.) |
Everyone was so excited, which was so wonderful to see. We can't wait to meet our little girl!!!!
