it's a.....!

i am mostly writing this blog to tell how cute my sister is...and she is cuttte!

last night i headed over to my bro and sis's house at 8:00 for a baby revealing party - yes, a baby revealing party. to be completely honest i was a bit skeptical about this event...wasn't sure if people were going to be excited or thinking, "this is a little much." my cute sister made cupcakes for everyone. she put baby bottles in the middle of 7 cupcakes - 4 of one color and 3 of another (pink and blue of course). if there were more pink than blue bottles - it was a girl...and vice versa. sis gave the signal to start and the eating began...never before in my adult life have i seen people eat cupcakes so fast. it was loud and hilarious. in a few minutes, 3 pink and 3 blue bottles had been found...so now we were looking for the final, definitive bottle! at this point, my mom was picking up cupcakes and not eating, but tearing them open! Aaron was the one who had the last bottle....and he took his sweet time enjoying his cupcake (knowing very well he had the final bottle...also knowing that we all might kill him soon if he didn't spit it out and show us the color). he did take the bottle out of his mouth - and it was BLUE!!!!! my brother-in-law could not stop smiling...wonderful!

i am going to have a nephew in October! what a fun, new adventure this will be...baseballs, vests, trucks, dirt (oh wait...Addie already looooves dirt), cons, and hopefully NOT getting sprayed in the face while changing diapers. gosh i'm excited!

of course you aren't as excited as me and i don't expect you to be. i simply wanted to share my sister's cute idea and the fantastic outcome!
