Baby Cousin Reveal Weekend

Ava and I headed to Dallas for the weekend for a baby gender reveal for her baby cousin due this summer. We'll start with the big moment, everyone was convinced it was a boy but a few of us (Ava and I included) were holding out for a girl. This video starts with grandma's thinking they had the envelope with the answer in it but Matt had the real one in his back pocket. They also streamed it live on the internet so there out of town friends and family could take part which I thought was a pretty cool. 



We are so happy its a girl!! Ava and her baby cousin will be only about 2 years apart, I can't help but envision late night talks, shared inside jokes, spending weeks in the summer at each other's houses, hand me down clothes, looking forward to playing together at the holidays...Within 24 hours of the reveal they already have their first matching outfits (Thanks again Brooke!). We are so excited for this sweet baby to get here!! 


So back to the other events of the weekend. Mom and dad picked up me and Ava and we all rode down together. Ava discovered her new favorite food on the road trip, Raisins! I had to limit her on them, she ate them like they were candy. 



Saturday we went down town to see Matt's office and eat some amazing pizza at a place called Neo's. I love thin crust pizza and this place is known for their version of it, I highly recommend it next time your in Dallas downtown area.
