Last year on the Saturday before Mother’s Day we found out if we were having a Boy or Girl!! The year has flown by and has been full of happy (pink-filled) memories. But it was such a fun day it was worth looking back. Here’s the recap:

The Power of Pronouns
I’m very much an English geek. It has always been my favorite subject in school and my someday dream job is to be a professional blogger. But this weekend made me realize how much I LOVE pronouns.
She ~~ Her ~~ Shes ~~ Hers
What beautiful words!! These are music to our ears!
Let me take you back to Saturday morning…
Denny and I had the long-awaited ITSA party to find out if It’s A Boy or It’s a Girl! It was hands down one of the most amazing weekends we have had in years.
I was wide awake by 6 AM! I could barely sleep because I was so excited to find out about the little person joining our family. I was 99% certain it was a boy but I wanted to see the blue balloons to be sure. I thought Denny was 99% certain it was a boy too, but at the last minute he came downstairs in a PINK shirt with a blue vest. Pink shirt?!? I was shocked, but he said he had a last-minute feeling it could be a girl.
Denny and I were so fortunate to have a lot of friends and family join us for the big reveal. By 11 AM, the excitement was out of control, and our neighbor Theresa brought over the box (she was kind enough to pick it up from the florist).
Here it is, YAY!!!
Our friends and family were really anxious and almost everyone dressed in either pink or blue. It was so great to see that everyone was excited as us. Check out this spirit!
By noon we were ready for the reveal. Our hearts were racing as we realized it was time to find out if we were having a boy or girl! I’ll let the pictures tell this part of it…
“Ready to do this?”
“Hold my hand, I’m nervous”
PINK?!?!
So Shocked, So Happy…
So Emotional!
We’re having a Little Girl!
Everyone was beyond thrilled! The rest of the day was a blur filled with phone calls, texts, and a trip to Babies R Us.
