It's a ...

I messed up.  In a big way.  I thought the gender reveal was TODAY.  Luckily, my son's power went out yesterday and he texted to say we might need to come here for the cake.  What?!?!?  I mis-read the text because I thought we couldn't do Saturday.  If the power hadn't gone out, we'd have been lounging on the sofa none the wiser.

Power came on.  Gender reveal happened.

It's a BOY (!!)

That's the wedding cake
knife from our family.
It's getting lots of use.

I saved some things from his baby years.  My grandmother made lots of beautiful clothes and such -- including a yellow hat and blanket set and a multicolored blanket.  I have a picture of her the first time she held him -- the yellow set and the other blanket on the back of the sofa.  I saved all of them.

Also, his first teddy bear from my good friend (the ones we're going on vacation with in February) and a pillow my mom made.  I love nostalgia.  

We're so excited.  Our GRANDSON.  It just feels right.  

What an unexpected day in the best way.
