First days home

Dear Froggie,

Wow,  what a crazy week! After your surprise appearance a month early, it has been very hectic. We spent 4 days in the hospital, mostly because of Mommy since you were born very suddenly. Then we got to bring you home. Mommy and Daddy are doing ok. Your daddy has had his hands full taking care of both of us, since Mommy can't do too much right now, and your grandma, naniji, and Gigi have been coming over almost every day to see how they can help. Thank goodness because Mommy has been very overwhelmed and daddy is exhausted. It's crazy, because there were lots of other pregnant mommies who were supposed to have their little ones before us but here you are! We are so blessed that you are healthy and happy and eating (a LOT) and doing all the things you should be doing.  Between your baby tai chi and air guitaring we think you are going to be quite the creative one. Well, today is your first drs appt since leaving the hospital which means its also time for your first bath. Love you little one!

Birthday!

So you are as impatient  as your momma. You decided to scare us half to death and come a full month early. After being rushed to the hospital by ms. McClendon the librarian at hollibrook where we were on a field trip, just an hour later you were here. You are so beautiful and everyone is so excited to meet you even though they were all worried about both of us. Your uncle maz even finished setting up your room since he was so nervous.  You have been so calm so far, so we hope it stays that way. Going to get you from the nursery soon...love you Sooooooo much little one!

Paint colors

So little one, we picked out the paint color for your room today. Our first idea was green, then sky blue, and now we decided on a purple. Actually your daddy picked it out. Hopefully this weekend your room will get painted and we will start getting your room together. We are so excited and love feeling you move around and kick. Especially when you play with your dad by kicking him when he taps you. We are very lucky you know to have such an awesome dad. While mommy is definitely worn out, we know it is so worth it. Will post pictures soon!

New Year, More Kicking

Dear Froggie,

It has been awhile since your Dad or I have written anything. Between giving final exams, family being in town, and trying to get the house cleaned up after everyone left, Mommy was very tired.  So, whats been going on....

Well, you seem to really like 2013 and keep moving around. Sometimes it has been difficult for Mommy to breathe and you seem to like kicking her ribs, but it is totally worth it. But, work has been stressing Mommy out as well, and some people seem to forget that I am not working at full speed anymore. Oh well, it is what happens.

We had your 33 week drs appointment today. We got to hear your heartbeat again and it was pretty funny that you kicked the machine. These next 2 weeks we should get your room set up as your Aunts Shelby, Melissa, and Linda are throwing a baby shower, so is your grandma, and 3 other baby showers, so we are excited to see all the stuff for your room.

Anyway for tonight, Mommy is going to go to bed early so hopefully we can both get some rest.

Love you, only 7 more weeks to go!
