pink or blue!?! they didn't have a clue!

We could not wait to share our exciting news with our families! Luckily, we were already planning to visit everyone Easter weekend, so it was the perfect time to let everyone know who Baby McFee is!

First stop. Hartselle!

After the ultrasound I ordered this cake, and bought blue plates and pink plates in preparation for the big reveal. Luckily our family humored me and was willing to play the game. If you thought Baby McFee was a boy, you picked a blue plate, and if you thought girl, you picked a pink plate. The inside of the cake tells the secret!


the BLUE team!

Safe to say the McFees were thinking BOY!

the PINK team!

Pop and Payton (and Emily) were the only ones thinking pink! 

MacMama did the honors of cutting the cake...


PINK
It's a girl! I think everyone was shocked! 


Thank you for helping us make such a special memory!

It's a SHE!

On April 21st we were thrilled to learn Baby McFee was healthy and measuring right on track. 
Thanks be to God! We also learned Baby McFee is a GIRL!

I've dreamed of having a baby girl, but for some reason kind of pictured our first child as a boy. Before the ultrasound when people asked what we wanted I HONESTLY just wanted a healthy baby, but what a joy just to KNOW!

When the tech said "you've got a...(dramatic pause)..daddy's little girl!" We were over the moon!

John was smiling so big I thought he might bust and all I could say was 
"IT....is a SHE. it's a she! A.SHE"
(not really sure why I didn't say GIRL, but I'm learning I have odd responses in big life moments)

Here SHE is....
