Hello My Darling Baby Boy!

Dearest Apple,
( Or should I call you dearest baby boy?) If the doctor's ultra sound is correct and the baker didn't make a big mistake then you are a boy. Oh boy, oh boy! Your Mommy, Daddy and big brother are delighted to know and your mommy is already thinking about how to decorate your room.

We had such a good time at your celebration . We played games like "Famous Baby Pictionary" (I'll explain that to you when you are older) and blindfolded tasting of baby food. The big reveal came when we all bit into the cupcake and found blue frosting in the middle indicating you are a boy.

Your Mommy and Daddy had everyone write wishes for you as you grow to be a man like your daddy. Your brother liked the refreshments , cupcake and the extra attention.


Speaking of your big brother , I'm pretty sure you will like him and be very glad you have someone to share your secrets, play with, build forts, ride bikes, wrestle with and check out his toys. He will probably be bossy (since he older,) but will be a built in friend when you are lonesome or bored.

We are anxious to see you in January. Sleep well, little prince the world is waiting on you.

Gender Reveal Preparations


Here's my invitation to the very first "Gender Reveal" party that I've ever been invited to attend.

Before your Mommy was born there wasn't ultrasounds that revealed what sex she would be so your Mommy was a "surprise package". (A nice surprise as I really wanted a "Suzy" in my life.) Your Auntie Becky was 1 and a half when her "stister Zoo-Zoo" was born.

Your Mommy and I have been talking and planning games to play. Poppa and I are planning on coming up to New York the day before to help decorate and cook for your celebration. Yes, Apple, I did say celebration as you are a sweet gift to our family.

Warning! Spoiler coming up: ( You need to know that your Mommy loves to throw parties and celebrations but will wear herself out trying to make everything perfect. Your Daddy loves your Mommy so much that he will wear himself out to please her. You will probably not understand any of this until you are older but remember sweetie your Diva was the first one to tell you that this is her way of saying how much she loves you . So smile sweetly for the pictures and give her lots of coos and giggles!)

Here are some of the decorations for your party.
Your Mommy has made streamers out of pink and blue ribbons. She has the food either pink or blue. There are cookies with Pink frosting and cookies with Blue frosting. There is candy that is wrapped in either pink or blue. There are also pizza pops on a stick. On the back of the table are the cupcakes that your Mommy put pink or blue wrappers around and little flags that are pink and blue.



There are both pink and blue plates, pink and blue plastic cups, and napkins and even pink Lemonade to drink. Your Mommy has even made party favors for people to take home with pink and blue taffy with a picture of a cute little baby on it.

Warning another Spoiler: ( I need to tell you right now that your Mommy is very creative and has a hard time throwing away the little baby food jars so don't tease her just tell her how pretty and smart she is and how lucky you are that she is your Mommy.)

Everything is all ready for your Big Reveal. Your Mommy has asked that all the guest wear either pink or blue so your Diva is wearing pink and your Poppa is wearing blue (that way one of us will be right and you need to know that Poppa doesn't own anything Pink!)


Don't we look cute in our pink and blue ? We are so eager to know if you are a dashing young man or a beautiful young lady. Just know that you were loved from the moment we heard of your arrival this coming January.

Love and Kisses
(XOXO)

Your Diva
