Dear Froggie....the beginning

Dear Froggie,

Your daddy told me a while ago that we should keep some type of journal. Well, I guess this is as good as any. Today is September 30, 2012 and you are now 19 weeks old and apparently the size of a mango. (I don't know where they come up with this stuff). This has been a very eventful week for your daddy and I. On the day you were officially 4 months old, your dad got a job offer. We are very excited even though working together for 5 years is going to make not working together a little strange. But you are bringing us little miracles all the time. I guess I should back up.

We found out about you on a Friday the 13th. July 13th actually. Your Aunt Maria was living with us before moving to Abu Dhabi, and Uncle Maz had just moved in. I didnt want to take a pregnancy test because even though you were giving me all the signs, I didnt want to be disappointed if it wasn't true. After 9 months of tests and doctors appointments and medicines, we didnt think it was possible But, I took the test and there it was "pregnant" I think I didnt know how to react. I was so excited and terrified at the same time.  Your dad is way calmer than me though and has been throughout all of this.  By the 10 week appointment, you were showing off, jumping around, hence the froggie nickname. Your dad is a little scared that you are going to be more like me than him, but I think it will be ok.

Since then we have told people and everyone is very excited, although, the belly rubbing is a little ridiculous. 

Your dad has been coming up with cool ideas for your room so we will start working on those once we know what you are, but either way its going to be awesome. Its neat though to see your dad looking up all this stuff.

Hopefully, one day when you are old enough you will read this and know how much you are loved :)
