Three months ago, we found out the gender. We wanted to do something different than the first two times, which were both pretty standard fare--the ultrasound tech told us Matthew was a boy, and we found out Thea Bean was a girl upon her delivery. So, this time, we went with a gender reveal party. We bought one cake pop for everyone in E's family, including the kids, and told everyone to dig in at the same time. Whoever was the lucky one to get the blue or pink cake would make the announcement.
So we tricked them and got them all a cake pop with blue inside. And then we had the kids play...
We had initially planned to be surprised ourselves at this party but then chose to find out yet a different way. We took a sealed envelope with the gender written on a piece of paper to an ice cream parlor and asked them to give us a scoop of blue or pink ice cream. The man sealed it in a paper bag and we took it to the car. Blue it was. My surprising response, "YES! YES! YES!"
