Big News!

     It has been several weeks since we announced our big news on Facebook, but that's how I roll when it comes to blogging, always a step behind. So this story will be familiar to some.
     Gray and I knew we wanted to get our friends together for a gender reveal, but we didn't quite agree on how it would work. We finally settled on finding out before our guests, and I think it worked out perfectly for us! We had our 20 week ultrasound, Monday, May 12th and planned our party for the following day. It was a hazy 48 hours, finding out the news, cleaning the house, prepping the food, all while wrapped in a cloud of pure joy as I tried to imagine life with this new individual. Trying so hard to change my language from "it" to "him," from "Baby Cato" to "Baby Boy Cato."We let our family know through a video Gray took during our ultrasound, but trying to contain the news from friends here was kinda hard. I'm glad the party was so soon after we found out.
     The menu was pretty simple, but Gray and I couldn't help adding in a little of our cooking flair. We had hot dogs, hamburgers, chips, and the famous Cato nacho dip, veggies, and for dessert my special peach cobbler! It was so fun to have our friends over and have them share in this moment with us! It made finding out even more exciting, who knew that was possible!
The proud new dad! Working his magic at the grill.
And here's how it happened folks!
It's a BOY!!!!
