Couple reveals gender of their child by having a giant BABY jump out

Expectant couples keep out doing each other with crazier and crazier gender reveal parties ahead of meeting their bundles of joy. 

And now Yessenia and Eric from Houston, Texas, have significantly raised the bar for these popular parties by having a relative dress up in a large baby costume to surprise the crowd during their reveal.

In an interview with INSIDER, Yessenia explained how she first had to convince her husband to have the gender reveal party over Labor Day because initially he didn’t want one.

Hilarious: They decided to put Chris in a large baby costume and not tell anyone

‘He gave it some thought and decided that if we were going to do it we would have to think outside the box,’ she said.

‘He wanted his brother [Chris] to pop out of a box wearing a giant diaper and I thought the whole baby costume would be even better.’ 

The couple did not inform their friends and family on what was going to pop out of the box for the reveal. 

Instead, they handed out cardboard poppers with colored smoke inside for everyone to release at the bottom of the countdown. 

Then, to the surprise of everyone, a large baby popped out of the box wearing a bib and pacifier as blue smoke clouded the air to signify the family was having a boy.

‘The people at the reveal party were all shocked when the giant baby came out,’ Yessenia said.

‘Some of them expected balloons or something of that nature but never a dancing giant baby. They loved it and thought it was hilarious.’ 

Chris appeared to be the best choice to don the baby costume because he popped out of the box ready to perform a variety of dance moves to the surprised crowd.  

Incredible: After the couple released poppers confirming they were having a boy, Chris smashed out of the box and danced for the unsuspecting crowd
