8 Weeks

Hello Sweetie Pie,
As the title suggests we're now 8 weeks in! Your Daddy and I are getting more comfortable talking about you as an actuality and we are thrilled to be able to see you soon (11 days!!!). Although he claims not to have a preference your Daddy seems to be very eager to find out if you are a boy or a girl. I was watching a video today on what to expect from an ultrasound just to have an idea of what we would be seeing and his first question was how soon would they be able to tell the gender. And to think, I had hoped we might be able to wait until the birth to find out! Apparently, I do not know my husband that well...

To celebrate your 8 weeks I am watching Lady and the Tramp. I bought the movie with you and your future siblings in mind (I'm sure you'll be as big a dog lover as we are). I started buying my favorite classic disney movies when they're released on blu-ray so I would have them when we started our own family. I'm taking it easy today because I woke up with a terribly sore throat and body aches. The thought of catching something while I'm carrying you really worries me. I know it is out of my control to some extent but I so want to do everything in my power to make sure you have a good start in life. I know this is just another example of what I'm sure will be a regular occurrence as I travel further into the realm of parenthood. The reality is that no matter how much I plan I am not in control. I'm looking forward to mellowing out a bit and just enjoying being your Mama.

Love you my little one.
