dear baby,

Hello my darling baby.

Right now you are dancing in mommy's tummy, no doubt excited to make your debut into this big world. We are all so excited to meet you! You will be here in less than eight weeks now, time is just flying by. I can't believe it was back in June that I learned you were here and real, a tiny baby bean at that point, and now it's almost Christmas. You have gotten so big since then! I wish I had started writing to you earlier so I could tell you all of the stories and adventures you have brought us already. We know you are going to be trouble and we wouldn't have you any other way.

We will be sure to share everything with you, from mommy's cravings (lots of juicy fruit!) to how you like to kick all night.. Until daddy puts his hands on my belly to settle you down. You get hiccups when I'm getting ready to fall asleep that make my whole belly wiggle! And you are getting so strong.. You love to punch and kick the puppy whenever she lays her head on my tummy! She is going to love you so much, and I know you will love her just the same. She likes to sit in your bassinet! I know she is excited to meet you.

My dear, darling baby. We are counting down the days until we finally have you in our arms. I can't wait to kiss your tiny fingers and toes. I know your daddy is going to cry the first time you are in his arms. Meeting you is going to be worth this wait.. And the best thing that's ever happened to us.

Hugs and kisses,
mama bird
