Just a little longer

Just a little bit longer and you'll be here! It's so crazy to think that I'm going to be a dad in about a month. I'm really excited to meet you. Your mom and I have been working on your room and its coming along quite nicely. So far we have paint on the walls, your crib and changing table are set up, and we ordered a really cool wall decal to dress up your room. I can't wait to see the finished product. We also just got back from Disney world. Did you know that Mickey and Minnie Mouse were there? They loved touching your mom's belly with you inside. It was so much fun! We got a few pictures that we can't wait to show you. Your mom and I are looking forward to going back down there but next time we do, you get to meet Mickey and Minnie too! I'm sure that over these last few weeks before you arrive ill have a whole lot more to tell you. I love you.

Love,

The Baby Shower & Nursery

It's been a while since I last wrote to you but a lot has happened since. Last weekend we had your baby shower. It turned out great and your mommy and I were really happy with all the cute outfits and baby stuff that we received. We got a ton of diapers too! It's so crazy to think that we only have about a month and a half to go before you arrive and there is still so much to be done. One thing that we finally got started on was your nursery. This weekend we got it all painted a really pretty mango/orange color that we think you will like. We also put together your crib which looks really good. Your mommy and I keep going into the room and looking at it and we can't wait to see what your room will look like once it's all finished. It's all becoming more real every day. Right now your crib is all that is in there but don't worry, we will have it all nice and ready for you just in time for your big day.

10 Weeks to Go!

Holy cow little one, you're almost here!  Only 10 weeks left until your birthday and your mommy and I are so excited to meet you.  Time is flying by so fast and there is still so much to do, oh boy.  This weekend is the baby shower so hopefully you get some really cool things to play with and wear once you arrive.  I'm looking forward to playing with the toys too!  Your mommy and I were talking about names the other day and it looks like it's going to be a showdown.  I bet it comes down to the last minute too!  I have also been looking at your 3D ultrasound photos from a few weeks ago and I think you may have gotten my nose.  I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing.  Like I mentioned a few months ago, I'm hoping you don't get my ears.  I was looking closely at the photos to see but I couldn't tell :)  No matter what features you get from your mom and I, you'll be a beautiful baby girl and that's one thing I know for sure.  I can't believe in 10 weeks I'm going to be a daddy, WOW!!  I want you to know that I'm always thinking of you and I love you so much!

Love,

Daddy

You're a Squash! Week 29

So it looks like you're about the size of a squash as we officially enter into the 3rd Trimester.  It's such an awesome experience to feel you inside your mommy's tummy.  I can't keep my hands off of it.  I'm sure you appreciate it when we keep poking you but it's so much fun to see you start kicking and moving around right after.  I think your mom and I are going to sit down pretty soon and start getting a game plan together for your nursery.  We really need to get a move on it as your mommy's shower is in 2 weeks and it would be nice to have it at least started so that we have a place for all of your stuff.  I think we are going with a zoo or jungle theme.  It's going to be so cool.

We see you little one

 I was going through the 3D ultra sound pics and thought I'd post my favorites.  A few of them are kind of weird looking but we got to see our little girl open her eyes and even yawn.  Here are a few of my favorites.

You, in 3D

Wow! It was so cool seeing you in 3D tonight. Your mommy and I were so amazed and excited to be able to see you wiggling around inside her tummy. We got to see you smile, yawn, and even open your eyes a few times. It was so awesome! We were getting a little anxious because you weren't moving a whole lot but toward the end you really started squirming. What's more, we even got to listen and record your heartbeat and put it inside a little stuffed giraffe. We can't stop listening to it. We are so excited to meet you. We both love you so much!

Love,

Little Kicks

I'm so happy right now because last night I felt you kick for the very first time. They were tiny little ones and they made me smile. I couldn't stop rubbing your mommy's belly too! This is so amazing. I waited for this day and I am so thankful and blessed that I was able to experience this. I love you and your mom so much!

Love,

Daddy
