Can I tell you a little about my blogging friend Mike from Semi Sweet Designs?
He is an amazingly talented cookier with a huge appreciation for pop culture – which you know I adore (just check out his Breaking Bad cookies, Game of Thrones cookies, or Star Trek cookies! You won’t be disappointed!). So, I paired up with him today to help me announce the gender of our new addition! I knew he would come up with something amazing – but he blew me out of the water with these babies!
My geeky little heart just exploded.
Seriously, how fabulous are these!? Are you hearing the Super Mario Bros. theme song in your head? Me too. Please go check out his post on these cookies – show him some NoYoMoCo love! (the small boxes are from BRP box shop – they are wonderful and their customer service is next to none!).
Now, onto the reveal!!
This November, we will be welcoming a baby…
GIRL!!!
Oh, it feels good to tell you guys! Truthfully, I had an early scan at 16 weeks and they guessed girl then, but we got the confirmation at our 20 week scan, so we’ve “known” for a while now.
If you’re curious, the majority of you guessed girl (53%) and the rest of you guessed boy (47%). I was kind of hoping someone would guess a velociraptor or something like that – that would have been a win for me!
And, the winner of the $100 Amazon gift card is…
ENTRY # 326: LIZ NELSON!
Congrats and thanks to everyone who entered, and a huge thanks to Mike for helping me with his awe-inspiring cookies!

Thanks! And, if you’re nursing, you may FEEL like you’ve had a velociraptor, despite what the actual gender is.
Oh, isn’t that the truth!

The SWEETEST THING. The End.
I’m so happy for you and your little baby girl. Now I wonder are you going to have a guess the name game later?
Haha, no, probably no name guessing – we’re still deciding ourselves!

Haha, isn’t that the truth, Wendy! I have to get used to the kid’s TV
Wow, that is awesome news!
I’ve been following your posts for a while now and you have had quite a year, so it is fantastic to hear of your little girl on the way.
Best wishes for the coming months.
Adam.
Thanks so much, Adam!

Thanks, Nessa!
Congratulations!!! Continued best wishes for a wonderful pregnancy and now that you know the sex…are you shopping like crazy yet?
Mike is as awesome as his cookies. Love that guy!
Oh, Paula, there has been so much shopping! I’ve had to limit myself. But, you know, my husband is so much worse about the shopping!
While we were in Asheville, when we didn’t even have a definite gender confirmation yet, just the guess, he INSISTED on buying a stuffed pink, polka dot pig in a tutu for her room. It is quite cute
Congratulations! It’s so exciting your having a girl! And these cookies – I’m kinda speechless. They are beyond cute!
Thanks, Laura! Mike does fabulous work – I was so happy he let me share them!
Aww yay! I was right! Congrats on your upcoming lil girl
