Gender party

As I said in my previous post, we had an ultrasound at our appointment yesterday and we were able to find out the sex of the baby. We heard about this gender party idea from one of Jeff's former patients. The idea is to have family and friends come over dressed in blue or pink depending on what they think you are having. Then when the time is right, or in our case, once everyone got here, we handed out cupcakes. Inside each cupcake was either a blue or pink jelly bean, so when everyone eats their cupcake, they will know what sex the baby is.

Here's the sign Jeff made for the front door.

All the cupcakes. The ones with chocolate chips on them were the two the big brothers decided were theirs.

Mason was rooting for a sister, Cooper a brother. Well at least we know one of them would be happy.

The grandparents and what each of them were rooting for.

My brother Jared. He's so cute.

Dana Lynd, Maryanne Watson, Rusty Lynd

Ben and Nicole McCombs, Rhiannon Leppert, Jessica DeGroat (in back)

Jeff's dad, sister-in-law, and mom

Jarom and Crystal Watts


And the verdict is.......

a GIRL!


While I was frosting the cupcakes, Mason told me that the Holy Ghost was told by Jesus to tell him that he was having a baby sister. It made my heart melt, knowing myself at that time that he was getting a baby sister.
