Last night was SO much fun!
As soon as our prenatal appointment was over, we rushed home to get ready for our parents to arrive.
A few fun decorations were hung to go along with the theme of the night, while I took care of finishing up the cupcakes that were ready and waiting to be filled.
Our parents and my brother arrived shortly after, and we all snacked on pizza, wings, and garlic knots (obviously, we were being super health conscious for the evening).
But hey, whatever. It all tasted pretty darn fantastic.
Although after a burger and fries on Sunday, followed by pizza and garlic knots last night, I think it’s about time for me to reel it back in a bit this week. Otherwise, I think Baby Tooth is going to come out craving some fast food.
Oh yes, and of course there were cupcakes, too.
And they were filled with a very special color which everyone got to find out all at once last night. It was just so fun to watch their reactions and share that moment with them all, and I’m so glad we had the opportunity to do that.
So hey, with all the Baby Tooth talk already in this post, now’s probably a good time to let ya know that the Baby Tooth page was updated this morning!
And now, it’s about time for me to jet. Lots to do today!
Have a terrific Tuesday, everyone.
I can’t wait to find out what you are having!
What color were they filled with?? This is so much fun!
Those cupcakes are beautiful! Want to make mine when the time comes? ;)
Can’t wait to find out what color the filling is! I also wish I could eat one. :)
Those cupcakes are so cute! I can’t wait to discover if Baby Tooth is a he or a she!
This is random but when I looked at the first photo, it looks like there is a creepy ghost in the left side of your window! Haha, it is probably just the TV reflection but made me do a double take!
I saw the same thing and it looks like some creepy man is looking in the window!!
LOL – I noticed that afterward too – definitely from the TV. :)
Holy shennanigans! I didn’t see that the first time around, but that’s freaky!
I love the idea of doing cupcakes like that to reveal the gender! Can’t wait to find out what color the middle was!
I’m so excited for you guys! I can’t wait to find out!
Do we get to find out soon?? Cupcake idea = SO CUTE!
That pizza looks amazing!! Delivery pizza is just the best :).
I cannot wait to see what color the cupcakes were filled with!! :)
YUM! All the food looks really yummy :)
I’m sure Baby Tooth enjoyed the good eats!
So excited for you! What a fun night to be able to share such great news with your family! As a mommy of two, I know this is such a fun time in your marriage. Can’t wait to hear the big reveal.
What a fun way to surprise everyone! I’m sure your family & friends were dying to know as soon as they came over!
That is such a fun idea! I’m sure your family was thrilled when you told them. So exciting, congratulations!
You’re leaving us with a cliffhanger? Rude. I LOVE how you announced the gender reveal though. So creative :)
The cupcakes are adorable! Definitely excited to find out what the colour was :-D
I love that you all did this. What a fun idea!
Can’t wait to hear!
Those garlic knots look good! Let alone the pizza and cupcakes. I think when I’m pregnant I would have a hard time not getting my bub addicted to food like this as during pregnancy I feel like I could justify it :)
What a fun way to reveal it! I cannot wait to hear :) I am so glad the pregnancy is going so well for you <3
You are just the cutest, Courtney! Those cupcakes look delicious!
That cupcake idea is too cute! Awesome idea :)
Eek! Such a nice way to share the news! We don’t really do a whole lot of it in Ireland that I know of! It’s a great idea! Much better than a simple phone call!

That is such a cool and special way for your family to find out!!!! :)
That is such a cute and fun idea!!! I love it :-)
I can’t wait to see what color the filling was! I think that it is such a cute way to share the news with everyone :)

Looks like such a fun night! And the cupcakes look delicious!
Ahhh I can’t wait to find out!! Such a cute idea.
Oh I can’t wait to hear!!! So exciting :)
I can’t wait to find out what you’re having!!
Oh, how fun! Can’t wait to hear the good news :)
By the way, is it just me, or is there a creepy face in the window in the first pic? I hope its just a TV reflection – yikes!
Hahaha it’s the TV ;)
When are you going to announce it??? Ahh I’m dying! We did a cupcake reveal, too. It was so much fun. I can’t wait to find out what you’re having!!
Probably Sunday or Monday :)

Those cupcakes look so yummy! Did you use one of the recipes listed on your blog? Congratulations!
I used my vanilla buttercream to fill them, and my almond buttercream to frost them! I used a scratch cupcake recipe that I have, but it’s not on the blog. :)

Hi, I’m new to your blog. Are u a pro baker or just do it for fun? I bake often for kicks and was curious if you sell your baked goods.
Thanks!
Dawn
I have sold them in the past by word of mouth, but lately I just do them for fun. Either way, I wouldn’t say I’m a “pro” haha :)
Aww! So cute. How exciting :) I love your cupcake idea and they look adorable. I’m so taking it when the time comes- credit it to you of course ;)
