Gender Reveal ideas

Jackie
I feel like there's a lot of posts lately about gender reveals, and I'm sorry I'm going to add another one into the mix. We would like to find out the gender of this baby, but not at the ultrasound. We'll have the tech write it on a card and then we'll take it home. But we can't decide what to do. We did a cake last year for my second pregnancy, but tragically we lost that baby so now I feel like a cake reveal has been tainted. We aren't having a big party, it will be just us and our 2yo son. So we don't want anything elaborate, just something quick and fun but I can't decide! Maybe balloons out of a box? Any other fun ideas out there?
