Jamie had her sonogram yesterday.
But, even she didn’t know the gender of the precious baby soon to join their family.
But, even she didn’t know the gender of the precious baby soon to join their family.
But I knew!
As planned, the technician kept it secret. She handed me the photo revealing the special news as we left.
For a fun way to announce the news to her family, I made a cake for them with the answer inside.
Since Jamie and her family are spending a week down the shore (she came back up just for the appointment), I had to prepare two cakes and give her the right cake to take with her. 
She sent me these photos of the reveal…
my adorable Jamie… just a little… hesitant… to tell us… she is… expecting… again… baby number… seven… and this time she isn’t having twin sister, Jill share the news for her… so, she… casually… mentions it… during a text conversation about nothing in particular…
love my girl!

Hi there, So glad you found out that she is having a boy! It made it so hard not knowing-in fact, I have to start the quilt today. I couldn't buy things at garage sales etc. Love the cake-so creative.
Have a wonderful weekend my friend.

Oh Lorraine, I LOVE this beautiful cake!!.. And congratulations to all your family! My own Dear Daughter had me scared for a while, wondering if she was EVER planning to have a baby; but she sounds like she's at least giving it a thought now… Oh! YAY!! I can hardly contain myself, but I DO.. And I just calmly tell her, "Well, the time has to be right for YOU Honey. Travel.. Do what you dream of doing now, while you're still young and newlyweds.".. But I confess. I really can't wait, and I think she knows this! (0; Have a great day, and an even better weekend! ~tina
