Scarlett noted in her caption: "In the great words of the Beatles… 'Here comes the SON' Picture the scene, me & Scott go to find out if we are having a little boy or girl. We decide we are going to open the envelope at home just the two of us, well we only made it to the first set of traffic lights before we opened it up.
