My sister and Eric planned a big event to reveal the gender of their child. My Mom, Dad, Lucy and I headed over and found the table decorated in blue and pink, giving us no clue as to what "it" was. At each of our places was a baby food jar with pink and blue candy inside. Not really being one for competition, I figured we were going to have to count and I was going to have to win. I can't let my parents beat me after all!
So out poured the candy and as you can see below I had a number of small candies to count. Being totally focused, because that is what winners do, I didn't even think to look at my parents plates to see what they had to count. Well! They had FAR less to count and determined LONG before I did that I was to have a nephew and they would have a grandson. Still, with all the gusto in me, I shouted "It's a boy" just to feel like a winner!
Lucy was undecided and so she sported a yellow bow to demonstrate her love for what ever small child would soon play with her!

They also did a really fun thing to let us know his name. About a week later, they gave us each a hangman game! So fun. So it's a boy and his name is Cade Jeffrey. Love it and Love you cute boy! Can't wait to meet you!

Cade is an awesome name. Sounds very manly.
Thanks Aaron! Aww, sister I knew you were so super smart that I had to give you a bigger challenge. Hearing you shout "It's a Boy!" is one of the highlights to this whole pregnancy. I can't wait for you to meet your nephew. He is going to be so blessed by you that I once again am so grateful to the Lord for giving me YOU as my sister!
