As I mentioned in a "5 on Friday" post a few weeks ago, I had the wonderful opportunity to help a friend out with a very special project--- one of my college roommates enlisted my help with the gender reveal photo shoot for her second child! They did not find out the gender ahead of time with their first child, so this was new for them and I knew it needed to be extra special. I was honored to be asked to help with such a fun event, and to be the first one (outside of the ultrasound tech) to know the gender of their little baby.
My friend had lots of ideas, and we went from there with the planning. I loved designing how the crate was going to work and how the signs would look, and was really proud that she thought I was creative enough to put it all together. She hired a photographer to capture the special moment(s), and they created a video to send to friends and family announcing whether the baby is a boy or girl.
Here is the finished product:
Who Will You Be... He or She?
How cute is that!?! I think the video captures the excitement and nervousness of them finding out the gender for the first time. I love the song they picked (I had never heard it before), and thought the timing of it and the "reveal" was perfect. Ellie loves the video as well, and has watched it many, many, many times. So many times that she now sings along to the song, comments when "Little G" (the stuffed giraffe we gave to them as a congrats present) shows up on the video, and tells the little boy to "not run away from his parents" at one point in the video.
We are so excited for them and their family of four, and were honored we could help out with such a special event!
