We waited 2 very long days to find out what the gender of our baby is. I really wanted to throw a party to find out. I've heard of people calling this sort of party a "Cut the Cake Party", "Gender Party", or "What is it?"
I made the invitations and decorations; keeping the theme gender neutral, with pom poms, banners, and tissue paper topiaries.
Just enough food to satisfy any pregnant woman!!
We had everyone write down their prediction. 11 votes for boy, and 6 for girl. (Chance and I both predicted a boy.) We also asked for some name suggestions. Some of the girl names we liked were Macey, Felicity, and Hattie. For the boys; Gavin, Crew, or Coleman. (Along with Phineas, Ferb, and Graccus... Thanks uncle Deven...) We also played a baby trivia/plinko game with awesome prizes! Did you know that the heaviest baby ever born was 23 lbs. 12 oz.? Yikes!
We had the ultrasound tech write down the gender and seal it in an envelope. My parents were the only people who knew the gender. My mom made the cake, and dyed the inside blue or pink according to the gender.
Oh the suspense!
It's a BOY!!
We're so excited, or as Bailey would say, "ess-i-ket".
