Cousin on the way - And it's a BOY!

William Patrick Hatten is scheduled to enter this world February 2nd!  Sunday was Kim and Drew's big gender reveal.  They had this planned for month's, as my dad was going to be home from Bangkok and thought it would be fun to tell the families together.  They scheduled their appointment two weeks back, so they kept their secret from everyone for the whole two weeks. 

Needless to say it was a complete shocker, considering we never thought we'd have a boy in the family and could not be more excited for them!

The revealed his gender by having the family all stand in a circle.  They had written out a poem on cards for everyone to read aloud.  Then at the my mom, dad and Rick, all read the same line announcing the gender.  It was so fun to finally found out and see everyone's reaction. 

We are so excited for Kim and Drew and Annabelle cannot wait to play with Will.  Looking forward to the many memories we have ahead with Will and experiencing the wonderful journey of parenthood with Kim and Drew.  Congratulations and cheers to you mom and dad!!

This was the final card that the grandparents read to announce the surprise.

Annabelle at the reveal, slobber all over!  She's pretty excited about the news.

Hand done cards that included everyone's names on the outside and then their line inside. 

Boy crew - and yes we won ;)  Not that it was a competition.

More pinks than I thought! 

Kim and Drew getting ready for the announcement.

Love this picture.  Kim is explaining how shocked she was to my dad!  Love the emotion in both of them!  And loved that B was back for the surprise!

Hug it out...cannot believe you are having a boy!!
