baby cake

these are pictures from october 2010. we decided to find out the gender of our baby this time around, and a friend from church gave us a fun suggestion for how to do so. at my 20-week ultrasound we had the technician write the baby's gender on a piece of paper and put the paper in an envelope (which we sealed so we wouldn't be tempted to peek!). we gave the envelope to a very talented baker and asked her to bake us a cake that would reveal our baby's gender on the inside. michelle rupp made us the beautiful cake you will see in these pictures. it was gorgeous! glenn, mattie and i, both sets of our parents, and most of the wait staff at max & erma's restaurant in dayton that evening got to find out together that we're expecting...

mattie was less than thrilled about having her picture taken...even though she had an appetizer of finding nemo fruit snacks


the crew with the cake. can you feel the excitement?

what a scowl!

the grandpas

gramma & grampa kauffman

proud parents

grandma nofziger. i think glenn said something funny before taking this picture... do you remember what it was, mom?

max & erma's famous garbage burger - a bit messy!

the beautiful cake

pink and blue frosting on the outside...

...but the inside was BLUE!

mattie's saying, "it's a boy!"
praising God for the miracle of life...and waiting to meet this new little miracle any day now!
