Week 30

We have about 10 weeks left, Miss Cordy. Then you could come out to play!

This week Mommy's body is stretching to make room for you to come out. It hurts, but it's worth it for a beautiful baby like you. Mommy has been telling her new students about you, showing them your pictures. They are excited for Halloween to come, because you'll be almost here, then!

Your future friend Harper was born yesterday, she weighed over 5 pounds. How much will you weigh? Probably between 7.5 and 8.5 pounds.

Your Daddy has been working to keep our house nice while Mommy works and comes home to rest. Let's thank him, ok?

Aaaand this weekend you will get to hear your grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins at Mimi and Papa Joe's lake house. It's going to be fun, there will be tasty food, and we will get to share about how you are growing.

What are you up to right now? Mostly just being a baby. You sleep, kick, play with your feet, move your arms in what Mommy calls "dancing," and chill. It's pretty easy just hanging out, growing, and gaining weight. In fact, if you ever gain weight as fast as this again, you're probably having a little one of your own!

We love you, but stay put until Halloween, you hear? We can wait to meet you until then. =D

Love,
Your Mommy and Daddy

Week 29

Cordelia Leigh from over the sea...we got your pictures!

This is you in 2-D. We can see your whole adorable profile in veeerry good detail! But it gets better....

Here you are in 3-D, looking lovely and smiling a little smile. You're about to suck your thumb.

That blob-thing by your face is your hand, your left thumb is in your mouth. That's the second time we've seen you do that...you're like your Mommy.

Our friends think you have your Daddy's nose. Which is fine with Mommy! Less German bump, more cuteness!

We are getting excited because we will be seeing you in 11 weeks. We can't wait! =D

Love,
Your Mommy and Daddy

Week 27

It's the first week of school and Mommy is a busy bee, working to make sure everything is organized and put together in a good way. You see, Cordy, Mommy will need to have another teacher come teach her class while she is having YOU and spending time getting to know you after you are born.

Right now you are able to live outside of Mommy's tummy, but don't you dare come out until Halloween, missy! We want your brain to finish getting ready to learn before you are born.

Mommy has been feeling tired lately, something everybody says to get used to, because when you are born you won't be able to talk. You'll have to cry to tell us what you want. You will need to eat lots of times in the day AND the night, and you will need diaper changes to help you feel clean and comfy.

We are working on the nursery, getting your picture done on the wall so you will have something bright and beautiful to see when you're lying in your crib.

People love you already! Beth and one of Daddy's customers have given you LOTS of baby clothes to fit up to six months. You won't need any newborn clothes at all! =D

We are happy that you are growing healthfully and strong. We love you!
