I was trying to be a tease.
The whole point of these cookies is to tease.
I wanted to make you guess what the sex of the baby is… but then I was so impatient and just could not keep a secret that I posted it on my mommy blog.
So please, dont go over there and find out the answer. It would ruin all the fun!
But not really.
In honor of our soon to be addition (I am 28 weeks now!) I wanted to give YOU a new addition.
No, not my baby.
Yes, some of my cookies!
You are so smart.
More on that in a sec.
I made some cupcakes too!
I love those little fingers gripping the edge of our little cupcake.
Reminds me of some cute sneaky kids I know. Certainly not my own! *cough*
These cookies/cupcakes could not have been easier to make! My only MUST DO tip is: Use a REALLY thick icing consistency on the little fingers.
Otherwise they will run together and just be blob hands. And who wants a baby with blob hands?
Here is how to enter to win ONE DOZEN decorated sugar cookies!
Leave a comment on this post answering the question:
What do you think I am having, a boy or girl? And if by chance, you were to guess boy for some random reason, can you please also suggest some names? Thank you.
Of course, you do not need to be right to win.
All you need is a valid email. Also, I can only ship cookies to a US address. Sorry!
As if I havent already given enough hints as it is, here is one more. 🙂
I will select two winners!
Good luck!
*****UPDATED WITH WINNERS*****
Quite possible the BEST and most complete list of boy baby names I have EVER come across! You guys are awesome!! I think one or two of you even guessed the name that I have been pondering!
Anywho… here are the winners!
Boy! Congratulations 🙂 If you’re feeling adventurous, I suggest Mohan. It means “charming” in Hindi.

I’m guessing a boy :), not that you gave it away or anything :D. What about Ethan or Daniel? Or Mark? Sam? Ok, I’m not so good at picking names haha.

Congrats Rima and Lily!
Those cookies are just too cute!
Hummmm…. Guessing it’s a boy! I love the names Nathan and Noah! Just had a girl and called her Beatrice but if she were a boy she would most certainly be a Nathan!
I know from your other blog, but I want to win so bad! Not only do I want to EAT them, but I want to find out how you get them packaged up and sent out, with the glaze. And these babies are ADORABLE!
My favorite boy name that I haven’t used is Hugh. I was going to say, “Don’t laugh!” But I see that someone else suggested it too! So it must not be too crazy. I also like Clark, which someone else said. We love Clark and Parker, but can’t use them for reasons you can guess.
So happy for you. Those lil fingers are just too much. They remind me of your frogs, which are among my Very Favorite of yours.
I guess boy. Fur a name, Rod. It basically already written on the back of your truck right? Just remember, shipping would be cheep sending cookies to me 😉
Congratulations! So exciting!
We named our little guy Samuel Carter..
I absolutely love the cookies and cupcakes! Super Cute!

Hmmm…my guess would be a boy!! LOL I love the traditional names: Joseph, Michael, Samuel, Noah. Did I help any?? LOL I would love to win some of your cookies!!
You did an awesome job on these cookies/cupcakes!!
My crystal ball says you are having a little boy……
Good gracious, I am totally useless at the name game. We had six months to come up with a name for our son and couldn’t agree on anything until after he was born. (Then we suddenly chose “Eric,” which means “prince,” which turned out to be perfect for him.)
Having said all that, I do love biblical names–very traditional and meaningful.
So happy for all of you!
I am guessing a BOY :-), and I am suggesting the name I went with for my son because it is AWESOME and unique – but not SOOO unique that it’s strange – Anson. Nice and normal….but not too normal..ha ha.
Does it count if you’ve already read the post at “I am mommy” ;). Anyways, I’ll play along.. And totally take a shot in the dark and guess.. Boy?! I love Forrest, Alsup (as a middle name) Harrison, Cylen, Ozzie, and Tennison. Cute cookies! Congrats on you new blessing!
I am guessing that it is a boy!! little boys are sooooo cute!! some of my favorite boy names are Mason, Jacob, Daniel, and Noah. love them all!!
