No, it’s not my baby reveal party. It is my sisters. Just had to clarify that before going any further! Ha! My sister likes to do things old school… she doesn’t like to find out what she is having, she does not like to get induced, and she does not like to have an epidural. She would love to just stay home and have her baby at home or in the bath tub with her immediate family (she is so much cooler than I am!).
Her family started pressuring her to find out the sex of the baby very early… especially her 9-yr old daughter. After listening to her kids and husband beg and beg, she finally agreed to having a cake reveal party!
We took the envelope from the doctor in to the bakery and requested blue icing in the center of the cake if it says boy on the card and pink frosting if it says girl. Of course, my sister being a naturalist didn’t want to trust them alone with the information. She insisted that my husband take a look at the card as well… just in case the bakery wanted to be funny and make the icing purple! ha!
Anyway, off to the party! We had a lot of people there and had the party at a park along the inter-coastal. Beautiful place! Those guessing it would be a girl got on one side and those guessing boy got on the other.
This is the side cheering and voting for a girl!
Team “boy” was not nearly as enthusiastic.
My sister and two of her beautiful blondies! They all wanted to cut into the cake together.
Here they go… cutting
My cute little nieces face when she first saw the color on the inside of the cake… priceless!!!!!
I bet you can guess what she saw!
And it is…
Blue Baby Blue!!!
Just in case there was any doubt, the doctor included this picture in the sealed envelope… definitely a boy!
No doubt here!
Don’t worry, she eventually cheered up once she got to eat cake!
Here’s my sister… she is happy to have a boy, but not especially happy to find out early. Lucky for us, she is humoring us well!
My sister with her blue frosted cake!
