We did a casual gender reveal with my parents, brother/sil/nephew and my bff.
We had a sign with all the old wives tales...
heartbeat...boy
Cravings....girl
carrying...middleish haha
side sleeping on... boy
skin.... boy
We asked the u/s tech to write it in an envelope. She was super cute about it. We then brought it to a balloon place and had them fill a box. (I would have loved cake, but have celiac and there arent any good gf bakeries in my town.)
Turns out though...we are team pink! So excited to be having a girl. First granddaughter on both sides. Yay!
Now we are on to registering and are totally overwhelmed! Time is flying.

"People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality."
