A/N: heres a little short chapter, its not great but i dont want to take another two months to release a chapter.

"To the backyard everyone! Thank you for coming! Party will start in a little bit!" Ben and I called out to our guests as the gender reveal was underway. We had the place decorated nicely and snacks were set out for our guests to enjoy. 15 minutes late, Sarah had finally arrived with THE cake. I was thrilled to see it! She had the slip of paper the doctor gave us just to ensure that we have the right gender, butwe trusted the bakery so we hopefully wont need it.

"Im here! Im here! Sorry. Lets go come on!"

Ben, Sarah, and myself all jogged to the backyard, setting up the cake table and cameras. Ive bever been more excited in my entire life, the wedding is a close second of course. Or maybe when i met Ben. Seems like all the exciting moments in my life have to do with him. SORRY! Side tracking must be a side effect of pregnancy.

Anyways- Ben and I stood behind the cake table, holding the knife together. I looked up and flashed the biggest smile i could at him, and he did the same.  We gently pushed the knife into the soft cake, pulling it all the way down to the bottom and picking it back up, cutting another line to retrieve a slice from the cake.

We pulled the peice onto a plate, being careful not to peak at the color. Ben lifted the plate up for ourselves and the guests to see it, we started to slowly open our eyes and took a look at the cake. The vanilla cake surrounded a middle that was no color other than....

Hot pink.

Ben and I were ecstatic to see it, so much so that i nearly jumped 3 feet in the air to hug him. Im sure the pictures will be fabulous. He hugged me tight as our friends and family applauded.

"I love you, princess." He whispered into my ear, his hot breath sending shivers up my spine.

"I love you too."

"Not you, the other princess."  He laughed, cradling my growing belly.

We were off to play some "games" sarah had set up like a name suggestion, mom/dad does it (she gave everyone cards with lips and a mustache icon beside questions for them to ghess who would do what like change the first diaper or singing better lullabies), and the old wives tale game (matching my pregnancy to see if the old wives tales were accurate- which they were and it was creepy).

"Thanks Sarah, this has been great."

"Of course! Aunt Sarah is always the best," she lowered down to my stomach, "isnt she little baby fankhauser!"

Before the party was over, everyone managed to see ben and I, giving us hugs and useless advice. It was nice to see that they cared, but there is no way that im gonna eat 6 dates with every meal during the last four weeks of pregnancy.

"Finally, the house is all ours!" Ben said, clearly worn out from the party.

"Im gonna look for baby stuff online, wanna help?"

"Why not, but only if its in bed."

"Where else would i go hun?" I joked, kissing his cheek and following him to the bed.
