Cute Ideas to Surprise Family About #4 Finally Being a Boy - Olathe,KS

A girl friend of mine was pregnant with her 2nd child. They wanted to find out, but didn't want to know until the entire family found out. Here's what they did . . . she went to the Dr. for the ultrasound, the technician wrote the sex of the baby on a piece of paper and sealed it in an envelope. My friend had planned a dinner party for that weekend and decided that would be when they all found out the sex. She took the envelope to a bakery and told them to use white cake mix and color it based on what the sex of the baby was in the envelope. They iced it with white frosting. This way the entire family (including my girlfriend) found out the sex of the baby when they cut the cake.

I automatically thought of letting your girls wear shirts with letters...
let your oldest wear a B
your middle wear a O
and your smallest a Y

I think that would be really cute.

blue candy canes for the family! Or blue ornaments decorated by the girls.

how about a boy picture frame.. like one with blue, or soccer balls.. or it says it's a boy.. and put the picture of the sonagram in it... good luck.. boys are so much fun... or little sneakers.. and put a flower arrangement inside.. that way they get a gift.. and a little boy pair of sneakers....

Blue baby bottles filled with favorite candy, gift cards, etc...

Have your girls bake the grandparents a cake. Make the cake blue on the inside. Tell the grandparents that the girls wanted to share with them what the baby will be and they will know the sex of the baby by the color inside the cake. Or cupcakes could be fun too.

Cute ideas so far! I love April's idea of the B O Y shirts! I think you should totally do that but don't tell anyone and just see who figure it out first! Sue's idea with the blue candy canes is cute too...have your girls pass one out to everyone as they come in, again not giving anything away, just letting people figure it out!

You could do blue onesies that are geared toward grandparents... there are dozens to pick from. :)

Congratulations on your boy. A friend of mine recently found out she was expecting her first girl, and she has created what she calls a "PINK BOX" with little hair bows, pink bibs, etc. So, for your news maybe things that are blue, little football, or baseball, just little toys that say boy. Good luck and Merry Christmas
