Blog post about a really memorable day!!!!
………………………………………
Just like that…
we have a TWO year old
AND
we’re having a BOY!
Needless to say, Makenzie’s Birthday was a SPECIAL day.
Saturday, October 4th was Makenzie’s official Birthday AND 1st tap class day, party day and gender reveal day. Phew, I still need a nap from all the fun.

Wake up Birthday Girl!
Our day started bright and early and included bagels, decorations and some presents.

After breakfast Makenzie and I headed to her very first tap class! It’s a Mommy & Me class at a local dance center. She was shy in the beginning but warmed up in no time. This weekend was her third lesson and she’s really starting to get it. It’s amazing to watch her follow instructions so well. Stay tuned for June when we’re both in the recital (luckily the moms only have a small role). We dress in all black to hide from the spotlight.
Those leggies!!
Radio City Rockettes, here she comes!

Then came the party fun!!
We made it a Sweet Shop theme.
Our little sweetie is turning Two,
celebrate as we find out if her sibling will be Pink or Blue!
It wasn’t exactly Pinterest perfect but overall I think it turned out cute.
The sweet shop. I swear it was for the kids and not for my pregnant self.
Party decos!
Aaaaaand the most important gift of the day. 🙂
Dad Q got crafty with the pumpkins to make sure they were carved appropriately.

Then came cake time AND reveal time!
Yum!
She was excited and ready to go!
Make a Wish Makenzie!!
Aaaaaaaaand a look into her first present revealed that…
Makenzie will be getting a BROTHER!!!!!!!!
She was clearly very excited.
Denny and I both expected to see Pink in the box so it was an incredibly exciting and emotional moment for us! We can’t wait to see Makenzie love on her little brother. It’s going to be a fun experience to bring a little boy into this world. I’m sure we’ll get peed on plenty of times but we know this little guy will be the perfect way to complete our family.

The rest of the day flew by and we loved spending time with some of our favorite people!

A HUGE Thank You to everyone who came over to make Makenzie’s Birthday really special!! It’s going to be a fun & blue-filled year!
And to Makenzie, thank you for sharing your Birthday excitement with your brother. I still can’t believe you are TWO (even though you’ve been telling people you are two for months now). I know you’re going to be a great Big Sis! Please don’t put make-up on our brother and we’ll make sure he doesn’t try to date your friends.
Love you to the moon & back Birthday girl!
xoxo,
Mom
