boy or girl?

wednesday night, andrew and i hosted our gender reveal party!

with a great deal of help from my mom (who did ALL of the food and drinks), and my sister (who came into town for less than 24 hours from austin, just for the evening), we had a wonderful time! there are tons of pictures, but i couldn't leave any of the details out!

precious lucy who helped with decorations, supplied pewter trays, this gorgeous arrangement, and more pre-party preparation

this is my amazing sister who came into town for one night... after driving for 4 hours, she walked in the door and my mom and i immediately put her to work - thank you, aunt kk, for your help. i love you so very much and i know our little one will too!

kaleigh is holding lillian cate, rebecca & ryan's sweet angel. she made an appearance at the party to support her future cousin. andrew and i love her so very much already! and, she is a week old today!
