Niece or Nephew?

My sister & brother-in-law are expecting their first baby. The first grandchild on both sides of the family. And I get to be an Auntie!!

This weekend, they had a little party to tell everyone the baby's sex.

Everyone put their vote in for their guess

Rather than just tell us, my sister baked a cake with either pink or blue on the inside to reveal the gender.

It's...

a....

BOY!!!

Proud parents

 And happy Aunt-to-be with the new Mama
