Gender reveal party confused my 9 year old nephew...

My nephew was very confused with how we knew the baby's gender as we cut into a white frosted cake with PINK on the inside when we told our family this weekend what our LOs A/S revealed....

"Did they get that from the hospital?" He asked my sister-in-law in a whisper...trying to wrap his head around a baby gender reveal cake...She just about died laughing as she tried to explain how it worked.

  • Poor guy. Seems like a valid question for a 9 year old and he gets laughed at.

  • Valid question, yes. He asked the wrong aunt. She's not the best source for anything. But, it was a cute question nonetheless.

  • I'm going to show this post to my aunt with young boys who are often confused and make sure she explains it to them ;)
  • So cute my boys (ages 10 and 8) think the baby is going to come out of my belly button and proceed to tell everyone that!
  • @bmerr yes it makes complete sense. I think that's why my SIL was laughing...not because she thought his question was stupid but because she thought it was such an innocent question...and so cute.

  • Do you have any thoughts on how to plan a gender reveal party? Someone suggested that we collect bets so we have money towards the baby---but I can't figure out how that would work...

    your nephew's response is cute!!!
  • how adorable!!

    Oh good god no. It's bad enough to have a gender reveal party - don't turn it into a fundraiser.

    @I'mgonnamarryyou--that is SUPER adorable!!!!!


    @sweetpeaamber, I don't think it is appropriate whatsoever to expect money/gifts for a gender reveal party. You could take "bets" but not in the monetary form. I have seen on Pinterest where people get a button for which sex they think it is, or they tally their "vote" on a chalkboard when they arrive.
