I’m so excited to be sharing the gender of baby number five with y’all today! We didn’t have an official reveal with friends, but we did invite some family over and Skyped with some too. We knew that we wanted to do something fun for the kids. That way those on Team Boy and those on Team Girl would be excited, no matter the outcome. Keep reading to see how our piñata gender reveal went–and what went wrong!
using a piñata for a gender reveal
Of course, we experienced technical difficulties right off the bat. Check out the video right around :15, that’s where things start to go wrong. When we got to the very last ribbon that was supposed to be pulled and had another epic failure. Actually, our first issue arose when I couldn’t wake baby girl up from her nap so she missed the festivities. In my defense, I tried really hard to wake her up. Luckily, she didn’t seem too upset about it when she saw her portion of the candy and toy haul. Even with all the missteps it was a really fun way to share the excitement wtih the kids!

As you can see, we had a lot of fun with this! We’re so excited to be welcoming another sweet little girl into our family. Truthfully, our son was hoping for a baby brother this time around so I was concerned about his reaction. However, he hasn’t really complained once. He loves his sisters so much Mike and I aren’t worried at all. We’ve got some really great kids, if I do say so myself.
