BLUEEEEEEEEE!!!!

So our baby will be the first grand baby on both sides of the family and we wanted to make a big deal out of it all. Considering we had to do some extra work to get here so we decided to do a "gender" reveal. We knew the sex but no one else. We are over the moon excited and feel so incredibly blessed. I'm so grateful for all my friends and family who attened. I can't wait to meet my baby boy. In about 22 weeks of course.

    Thank you @alpCRNA‌ we did a "volcano experiment" minus the volcano. I took a clear dish, filled the bottom with baking soda, DH and I each had a cup of vinegar and we slowly poured it in. It creates like an fizzing mess then DH dropped in the Crayola bath tablet that turned the fizz blue. I tried to upload a video but it won't let me :-(
    Here's a pic of the fizzingness.

    @alpCRNA‌ that's a cute idea! Another option is take a canvas and fill balloons with pink or blue and have everyone throw them on the canvas. You can then hang it in the nursery. I had way too many people for that project to work but I really liked the idea! Lol.
