I think Sutton was happy about her decision at the end! 😂 backstory ::: Sutton is 9¾ months old, and today Kay came prepared! 😂 She got the Harry Potter banners and even a sorting hat so that Sutton could pick her Hogwarts house. She set it up and led me to the living room so we could watch Sutton choose. When Kay sat Sutton down, she didn’t move at first, as if she was thinking. Then she reached out and grabbed one! 😳 To make sure Sutton was right, Kay brought out the sorting hat and double checked! 🥹😂 It was so cute watching her celebrate her decision! #kayandtayofficial #couples #relationships
