Yep, That Was Definitely You!

Dear Baby -

Yep.  You're pretty active.  After you made your presence known it seems I can feel you all the time!  You now like to wiggle and kick around letting me know you are there.  Maybe it's in excitement that we're about to share a bowl of Blue Bell ice cream, or maybe it's just because you're saying "hi."  You were especially active today.  Daddy and I were busy cleaning up around the house to get your nursery prepared so you must have wanted to be busy too.  You were so sweet to give Daddy a high-five (or a high-kick?) when he put his hand over you.  We're so excited that you're growing so strong!

Love,
Mommy

Baby, Is That You?

Dear baby -

Today you are 17 weeks old! You must have wanted to celebrate because I'm pretty sure I felt you dancing around.  It sure is nice to be able to feel you strong and healthy and we can't wait to see if you will be a he or a she in just a few weeks!

Love,
Mommy

That Beautiful Heartbeat!

Dear Baby -

Today marks my 15 week appointment with Dr. Ronen.  It seems like so long since we waited in suspense to hear your heart last time.  This time you weren't as shy and the nurse could find that beautiful beat right away!  The rest of the appointment was uneventful, but we're waiting patiently until week 20 when we get to see all of your fingers and toes and find out if you're a boy or a girl!  We can't wait to see your beautiful face on the ultrasound screen!

Love,
Mommy
