‘Bachelor’ Couple Arie and Lauren Celebrate Their Baby Shower With Ultrasounds and Waffles!

Our first glimpse of the festivities came from the soon-to-be dad himself! “Ready to get this baby shower started,” the 37-year-old wrote on an Instagram video where he took us to see some of the yummy food prepped for family and friends.

This waffle bar is literally the stuff of dreams. Who doesn’t love a ~brunch party~, y’all?!

Those cupcakes with the baby bottles and the bows — we’re emotional! Arie and Laur, 27, already know they’re having a baby girl, so we love that she’s an obvious part of the theme.

“We actually did the early gender test online, so we took our test at 10 weeks,” Lauren explained to Us Weekly back in January. “We got the results back from that, and it was that we were having a boy.”

Wait, what?! The couple then found out at Lauren’s 15-week check up that they were actually having a girl — which was what they wanted all along. “I think, to be honest, in the beginning, we were both hoping that we were having a girl,” she gushed to the outlet.

Looks like baby Luyendyk is ready for lift-off pretty soon! Check out that sweet little face — and yes, this duo had ultrasound technicians at their party.

What a cute idea! Live ultrasounds is such an adorable and interactive way to celebrate the new addition as well as those of guest, since some of Arie and Lauren’s friends are expecting, too.

So beautiful! We expect there may have been a few tears at this party, but nothing some waffles and cupcakes couldn’t fix.

Check out this little one! Her shirt is too cute: “Future BFF … loading. Estimated time, 5 weeks.” Looks like she’s excited for baby Luyendyk, too.

Naturally, at just like at every baby shower, there were games! This particularly ~saucy~ game was a pretty hilarious one, and honestly, it seems tougher than it looks.

Next, we got a bottle chugging competition — no telling what was actually in the bottle (baby showers have been known to get a little ~turnt~) but either way, Arie cheated. Oops!

“Who will be better at singing lullabies?” was the question posed in this next game, where the couple sat back to back and “anonymously” answered questions with their shoes. “Oh babe, you know I’m the karaoke queen,” Lauren wrote, despite each of the pair thinking they’d do the better job.

Onto gifts! Arie acknowledged his own personal oddness when he was spotted taking one of the baby’s new toys and giving it a spot to sit on his knee. LOL.

Clearly mama is going to have to learn to share! “I was mid sentence saying, ‘Absolutely not,'” she wrote on a snap of her husband holding a onesie with the slogan ‘Can I steal Daddy for a sec?’ “Guess I still have a little PTSD.”

This couple is too cute for words. “@ariejr is going to be the best girl daddy,” Lauren wrote on a photo of the couple opening a box of toys for their new arrival.

“Such a good time today! Thank you @kaylanoelevangelista and @sarahstidhambeauty, you guys are the best,” Arie and his wife shouted out their friends who threw the sweet party for them. The countdown is on, y’all — baby Luyendyk is almost here!
