Baby Baby!

Oh hi baby...

Well, buddy, it looks like this is really happening and you are a sticky little bean after all. I'm still in shock, to be honest...I have been mentally preparing myself for this not to work out (again), and we got some amazing good news at the last appointment and well now I find myself preparing for the best. Terrifying! Amazing. Really amazing. You are a long anticipated little addition to our family here buddy. You can't hear us talking about you yet, but we are, and we are all blown away that we get to love another little bean. We being your dad, and big sister, and I. That's right! You have a big sister, you get to come into this world with a little person all ready to teach you all sorts of things. Pretty lucky kid. Your dad and I are both the oldest kids in our family and have no idea what it's like to show up and somebody is already there waiting for you! I feel like it's a pretty cool thing to have. A big sister. Her name is Lyla, you'll probably be hearing that name a bunch when you get your ears, she's pretty neat. I can't wait for you to meet her. I can't wait for her to meet you! She's so lucky to get to have a sibling, your dad and I are really lucky in that we both have little siblings. Your dad has a sister, so he'll be able to give you advice on how that works. And I have two brothers! No sister experience here, except for being an awesome one. No really, ask your uncles!

So nubby buddy, how are you doing in there? I've been pretty tired these last few months, I don't know if I should blame you or your sister...I guess I need to get used to that huh? You are 13 1/2 weeks grown right now, my little belly is making room for you to keep growing. So keep growing ok?? Stay happy and healthy in there. I'm trying to eat all the good stuff for you, and what I'm missing I'm taking vitamins to make up for! Besides the exhaustion, and rolling nausea all day long, I couldn't be better. Oh man. This is like a really big deal--thanks for sticking around baby. We all needed you right now.

Ok sweety, I just wanted to let you know how much we love you and can't wait to meet you. And to tell you that the journey to this moment has been totally worth it already. We got some great little pictures of you I will post soon, ok? ok.

Goodnight sweetpea, we love you.
