Baby Thompson

Every time we find out the sex of a new baby we have the ultrasound tech seal the sex in an envelope. We take the envelope to the bakery and have a cake made with a layer of blue frosting in the middle or a layer of pink frosting in the middle. Then, we have a party and cut the cake with our family and we all find out together. Tonight we had our cake party!

Audrey was the hostess...she was in charge of the theme. I took her to Alin Party and she was VERY excited to have a minnie and mickey mouse party. Her Halloween costume is Minnie so that might have had something to do with it.


We enjoyed dinner with the family first and let the anxiety grow for an hour or so.



Linda Jones of Cakes N Crumbs made our adorable cake. She whipped the whole thing up this afternoon. And of course it was delicious! I did red polka dots for our Micky/Minnie theme.







We let Audrey cut open the cake.

AND...it's a girl! Yay, just what I wanted! I really, really want Audrey to have a sister so my wish came true. KT is just excited for another baby...we all know he's been wanting another since the day Audrey was born!

I love how you made Audrey so much a part of the day. It wasn't all about the new baby. Audrey was very much a part of the event and she was so happy that night. It was a lot of fun and we are so excited for the new arrival and can't wait to see Audrey with her new sister.
"Congratulations to all!"
