Thinking Blue!

Life is constantly evolving, and nothing is as heartwarming as hearing the words, "We're going to have a baby!"  It's especially true if you are going to be the Grandparent of said baby.  I'm thrilled to say that this happened to us just recently, and we are tickled pink------but in this case, it's BLUE!

 

Adam and Melissa didn't actually say, "We're going to have a baby."  They were much more creative (possibly thanks to Pinterest), and gave us this charming bottle of wine.  I cried!

 

 

To let us know the sex of the baby they used another cute idea when they came over for a BBQ.  Everyone chose either a mustache or a tiara to guess which they thought it was.  Mostly, the girls picked the tiaras, and the guys chose the mustaches.

 

 

Maddie, of course, was wishing for a girl.

 

 

Then came the drum roll, and 4 girls were chosen to push up the confetti that would announce the sex of the baby-----either blue or pink.

 

 

 

And.......it was BLUE!!!

 

 

Confetti and blue stars flew everywhere, and everyone cheered!

 

 

The guys were thrilled that one of their own would soon join their ranks.

 

 

Then Grandpa grilled us a very manly bratwurst dinner, while making fun of hot dogs.

 

 

P.S.  Can you tell that Melissa has a cute little baby bump???
