Well keeping secrets is definitely not my thing but I was able to keep Baby Patel's gender a secret (well almost a secret.) We opted to tell my mom over the phone together on Saturday since using the computer is not her thing.
We did a gender reveal on Ras's day off. I had to keep the secret for a good four days and it was rough!! I ordered some baby blue balloons from the party store and made a cute sign with baby blue and pale pink polka dots that said 'It's A...'. I also made a few signs to use in the reveal. Daddy's Girl for Ras, Mama's Boy for me and a sign for our dog which said 'I'm getting a little brother'.
All in all the idea, theme and pictures came out cute. Our neighbor came over to help us to take the pics-thanks again Christy! I will say balloons coming out of a box is not an easy thing to take pictures of. Next time I will use the string of the ballon and put it through the bottom of the box then tie a knot. Once that box opened and those balloons took off it was hard to actually capture that moment! I could of faked the moment again and again until it was picture perfect if I had tied those balloons down. ;) We put the pics together as a collage and emailed/facebooked it to family and friends.
