I Couldn't Help Myself

You knew I would do it... I just couldn't help myself. I had to make something special to celebrate this sweet little boy kicking around inside of me. Although we didn't run around from house to house re-announcing the sex of our soon to be firstborn, we did have a mini blue themed breakfast celebration at home!

Here's take 2 on the gender revealing sweets...
Being that it was 9am and I am trying oh so hard to contain my sweet tooth before the insulin delivery shows up in a few weeks, we opted for muffins instead of cupcakes.
Sticking with a blue BOYish theme, I figured blueberry lemon poppy seed muffins with a blue lemon glaze would do the trick.
In to the oven they go.
And out they come- looking browned to perfection.
Pushing the red food coloring to the side, I reached for the blue instead, a color I had just pushed aside a few weeks ago. Oh the irony.
The warm muffins were drizzled in blue lemony goodness.
And displayed for all to see and enjoy.
And by all- I mean the proud Mama and Papa.
(Please excuse the "we just woke up" faces. After all- we had just woken up.)

Hooray for BOYS! I absolutely promise you this will be the last gender related baked good I make during this pregnancy. The little man was pretty adamant about showing us the goods this time around and I am now 100% convinced that this baby is all BOY! That being said, I'm off to go return a tutu.. or two.
