First Comes Love....: The reveal............

As you all probably know by now, it's a GIRL! Yay! I hope I included everyone on the mass text! Anyway, I must say, the buildup for the reveal party was SOO worth the wait! The party was soo great, thanks to my absolutely amazing in-laws! They had smoked ribs, augratin potato casserole, coleslaw, baked beans, and rolls of course. The food was great, and the company was great!

After dinner and a little socializing we decided to play a few games. First, everyone that came had to sign in on a blue and pink sign that said if you thought it was a boy or a girl. Most of the men voted boy, and lots of the ladies voted girl. Gregory, Ryan's first cousin was the only guy who voted girl! Ha, anyway the vote ruled TEAM BLUE. The next game was an Old Wives Tale game, where Susan asked Ryan and me about 10 questions ranging from what I have craved, to my clumsiness, and how I even picked up a key on command. This game too scored TEAM BLUE (6 to 5 though). Then, finally, it was time for the cake cutting. My heart started pounding and my palms where sweating. I felt like I was about to perform on stage or something!! It was quite funny. So there Ryan and I stood, just like we did after saying I do, with the cake knife in our hands. Once we cut into it, I could barely feel my legs. I just started screaming like a freshmen on sorority bid day!!! So did Mrs. Susan though!! I just wish someone had us on video!! We were jumping around screaming like little girls in disbelief!! The inside of the cake was undeniably hot pink!! I fell to the ground knife in hand and all. I just couldn't even stand up!! Everyone rushed over to see the inside and started hugging and crying. It was absolutely the most amazing moment of my life!! Having to wait the extra 12 days made the reveal that much more special.

Of course we would have been excited for either a boy or a girl, but now this little bean is no longer an it, it's our baby GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow, it's still so surreal to me!!
