Dear Baby,
I am sorry I have not posted in a while. Things at home have been so crazy busy lately and I know there is no excuse. Much of the "busy-ness" is because of you. We got your nursery furniture and we are waiting to bring it home until November. We have had two weddings, parties, Lionel Richie concert and now a work trip and vacation.
I started feeling you move a lot more and Daddy has felt you move as well. I am getting bigger and bigger (I will be doing a post soon with just pictures so you can see how big I am getting). I've gained about 10 pounds so far and everything looks good.
Today I had an appointment and your heartbeat is 160 bpm which is super fast. Also, Michelle, our midwife, kept saying how active you are! All I could hear is the wooshing and wooshing which is you moving all over the place.
I am thankful that I am leaving for Boston tomorrow for meetings.
Friday we find out if you are a girl or a boy. I am BEYOND EXCITED. It's like Christmas but much more exciting.
Your dad is going to find out first and then meet me at a park in center city before dinner and give me a gift that is either boy or girl.
I TRULY do not have a preference. I am just wanting you to be healthy and happy. I do have a feeling of you gender, but going to keep it to myself.
No matter what your gender we love you so much!

My Body
They tell me that I will "get your old body back in no time".
They say "you will be back in your clothes in no time".
The truth is, my body will never be the same. It is not supposed to be.
I wouldn't have it any other way.
Whether I am able to fit back in my size 0 dress or not, I am forever changed.
My body has been given the ultimate blessing; a privilege, not a right.
This body is now yours to grow and develop.
Everything inside has accommodated for you. Arguably it has been waiting a long time for you.
My heart now pumps blood for both of us.
I do everything with you in mind now.
I look each day as my body is changing, stretching, and growing.
Not a single day has gone by where I do not tear up with an overwhelming feeling of gratitude.
I am not sure what I did to be blessed like this.
Nothing in my life has been as perfect as you.
I have never loved someone so much before that I have never met.
You are the love of my life.
You always have been.
You always will be.
