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!
I think it’s a boy! And I didn’t even peek.
Names I love:
Declan, Dylan, Holden, Gideon, Jasper, Toby, Logan, and William.
I totally did not suggest Logan because it was Mary Anne’s boyfriend in the babysitter’s club and she was my favorite. I swear.
umm, lets seee, i think, maybee, uuum, a BOY?? here are some of my favorite names:
Valentine (i know what you’re thinking, but there is a really cool book named Lord Valentine’s Castle that turned me on to this name 🙂
Harrison (my son 🙂
Griffon (technically my daughter but hey its a boys name too 😉
Aiden
Bryn
Lol, im such a hippy next it will be poppy and lily (acyually sweet names)
anyways, congrats! love love love your treats!
Too cute. I especially like the cupcakes!
Ummm, since you have the need for boy names?? Ummm,,, I guess boy! How about Nicholas Alan R.? Don’t know why that name flew through my brain!
Hmmmm, since I read your Mommy blog earlier today, I’m going to go ahead and guess that you’re having a BOY! As for names, that’s a tricky one. Since I’m not sure if you have a common thread among your other children’s names, I’m going to just throw out the name Jack. That’s out son’s name, and it fits him so well. I also like William and Garrett. Some friend’s sons names are Maddox, Maxton, Benjamin, and McCager. There ya go!! Good luck finding the perfect name. It’s so stressful, isn’t it??
I already read your i am mommy blog this morning, so I know, but my little boy’s name is William, and we call him Will. It’s a nice normal name that isn’t too common right now.
You’re having twin boys???? (I’m guessing the twin based on the two winners, but I could be off about that and what the clue was supposed to be, the picture, or two winners).
I’m not much help with boy names, unfortunately, though I do like Samuel.
Spencer is my favorite boy name!!
SUPER-CUTE cookies! I am so excited that you shared the news.
hmm…boy names…well a few months ago I was thinking of my brothers name and realized no one names their kids John, good name 🙂 now I’m sure you wondered why you wanted me to mention it, right? LOL! I like the name Griffin too
A boy? Yay!!!
I can’t believe that you are already 28 weeks!!! That is so exciting.
As for boy names, I had a hard enough time coming up with my sons name!
these cookies are adorable! and, since i know the answer i’ll say Charlie for the name.
