Tailgate Gender Reveal: It's a ....


This weekend Ted and I traveled to Bethlehem for my alma mater's rivalry football game, Lehigh vs. Lafayette. In case you're new here, I went to Lehigh, the better school. I've been back for this game just about every year since I graduated. And when I say for the game.... I mean tailgate. I am usually the only one of my friends that actually buys tickets... this year I didn't even step foot into the stadium. 

We had our anatomy ultrasound on Friday morning and finally found out the gender. It seems like I was waiting FOREVER! I could barely go to sleep the night before because I was so anxious to find out. I decided earlier in the week it would be fun to do a gender reveal with my college girlfriends since we would all be together. Thankfully my mom was onboard to make my favorite Funfetti cupcakes once she heard the news on Friday morning. She had both pink and blue frosting ready to go for the injector.

I almost slipped a few times that morning and it didn't help that some of my friends were trying to trick me. My favorite try from a friend's husband: "Lindsay, nice Barbour jacket. Are you going to get one for your little guy?"

Pick your guess!


Counting down as the guys look on...


Go!



Pink frosting!

Scarf: Zara (similar on Etsy - try searching tartan blanket scarf)

I asked Ted right before the ultrasound tech entered the room for his final guess. He had been saying girl all along unconvincingly... but finally told me he actually thought boy. I said boy for sure. When the tech said "I can tell you it's a girl" right away at the beginning of the appointment our mouths dropped! When the doctor came in to review the scan with us I asked again to make sure, specifically that nothing was going to pop out and surprise us, and she said for certain it was a girl.

Either way I would be happy and pray for a healthy baby. I am absolutely thrilled to be this little girl's mommy! Ted foresees the LPGA in her future.

Sugar, spice and everything nice. I'm 20 weeks along today... halfway there to meeting baby girl!
