dear baby:
this week feels like a milestone. thirty weeks. wow. it feels like its so close, i can touch it. i have started to cram. reading books again that sat on the shelf for a few months as i thought that i had all the time in the world. and i have begun preparing your dadddy with whatever random facts come to mind...like shouting from the shower this morning, "you know when the baby comes out, it may look a little funny and have stuff all over it!" or last night as we sat at a stoplight, "you know i want you to be prepared that it may be hard to see me in such pain, but that its just my body doing it's job and you will need to remind me of that." he always replies with a smile and with a patient, "yes, honey." like he knows this is just part of the process.
all of this while you continue to grow. nearly sixteen inches long and almost three pounds you are. my little head of cabbage.
this weekend is memorial day weekend. the beginning of summer. we are welcoming the season which will host your birth day. its a little hard to believe.
but i am ready for warmer weather and say bring on the dresses! this mama to be is tired of those itchy stretchy stomach panels.
love, mum
p.s. we are also on baby watch this weekend, as little baby dylan (and his very ready mama christy) prepares to enter the world.....ohhhhhh boy!
crazy!
