Baby we have been living in the same body for 15 weeks now soon to be 16. I am trying to eat a variety of things for you but sometimes I don’t do so well, things just don’t taste the same.

Luckily I am not sick to my stomach anymore that stopped a few weeks ago and hasn’t returned yet… Hopefully, it won’t for a while.

I can’t begin to explain what you mean to me already. I mean it’s hard to explain; you are such a blessing that I was told would never happen. One day I hope to be able to explain this to you and share in your experience too.

We are excited; we have so many questions that can’t be answered right now. What is your gender, are you going to be early/late, when do we get to feel you kick wiggle etc for the first time. I can’t wait to feel you and to have your daddy feel you.

Your daddy thinks you are a girl, I do too. It doesn’t matter to us what sex you are we just want you to be healthy and safe and be the best that you can be.

I can’t wait to be able to shop for you. If you are a girl don’t hate me but you won’t be “FuFu” till you get older and do it on your own. I promise I know nothing about being FuFu or (girly girl.) I also promise not to act like it either because I don’t want people to make fun of you. If you are a boy, well I will love to shop for you too. There are some really cute clothes for boys and well just try not to stuff bugs or critters in your pockets and bring them in the house. EWWWW!

I hope you are not a picky eater. Your daddy will not be happy I passed those traits on to you. He still teases me about being a picky eater but I will tell you it’s not all my fault; I got it from your Grandpa Pete.

I wonder who you will look like when you are born. I think about all those silly things that are just normal for me. I do think about important stuff too like how am I going to feed you? Will I breastfeed or bottle-feed or both. Will you be a co-sleeper or sleep on your own? Will I be a good mother or will you hate me? Yes, I do worry about that because I can be a pain in the butt. I just don’t ever want you to have to see that.

Mommy and Daddy get to go to the Dr on the 22^nd of February for an ultrasound. Hopefully you will show your stuff. Now, after you’re born it’s a whole other story keep them private’s private lol.  We might be able to find out early IF we can get you to show your stuff to your Aunt Beth. Just to let you know now you can show your stuff to her she is just trying to help mommy and daddy. That doesn’t mean when you grow up to go streaking. We will definitely have issues if you do that.

In a week or so I will start singing to you. You might not be able to hear me but at least I will be practicing. I kind of need it.

I am going for now so I will talk to you in a few days.

Till then sweet baby (punkin)

I have to admit I wasn’t the one who came up with the idea of writing to my baby. I read another blog and took the idea from them. Please check it out too.
