It's a BOY! + Happy Birthday to Grandma!

Our quickly-planned gender reveal get-together was absolutely wonderful. There's nothing like sharing an exciting moment with our closest friends. I loved the excitement that emanated through the house as everyone awaited the verdict with anticipation. Our only regret is having such a small space because I would have wanted to share that moment with the rest of the world if we could! Other than that, we would do it again in a heartbeat! :)

Special thanks to my parents for helping us be able to celebrate southern style with fried catfish, and to our friends who brought a few potluck items to complete the dinner table. All the props and decor were DIY with craft stuff I had in storage, so we were able to celebrate and have a great time on a tight budget. When my dad came to visit last week, he made sure my freezer was packed with enough catfish to last us through the season! Even after cooking for the small party we had, we still have plenty to last us for a good while. They know I love my catfish!

With that said, we're so thrilled to be having a son. Despite An being on Team Pink if he had to pick a team, his paternal instincts are already kicking in, and he's ready to be the man his son needs in his life. I think he's already so proud of him being so obedient for the ultrasound, haha.

Our son wasn't being shy at all! ;)

It is also my mother's birthday, and this will be her second grandchild and first grandson. I hope that made a great birthday present for her! Happy birthday, Mommy!
