A little flashback

This morning your grandma Olga called to see how we were doing and I was happy to report that we're at home still resting up for your big arrival. Last Friday, we *thought* you were going to make your grand appearance, so daddy took a photo of me to show you one day that in this belly is where you were warm and cozy for so long. Well, mama passed all her tests and was sent home instead. That's not a bad thing because we want you to be healthy and strong, but honey, you should have seen how many people got soooo excited at the idea that you were on your way! Right now, my car is packed with everything we think we're going to need including your cute little coming home outfit. We're wondering whether or not your clothes are even going to fit you or if they'll be too big for you...no matter though because you're going to be coming home all snuggly no matter what :)

Today I'm going to take a few more belly pics just in case they tell us you're going to be born this week. I am going to miss feeling you kick me and roll around in me sooo much. Other mamas say that in the 9th month, most women are just more than ready to have their babies but truly, I feel like this has gone by toooo fast! Having you all to myself has been such a wonderful feeling, but I know that you want to meet everyone you hear around you. Today I'm also going to figure out what music I want to have playing in the labor & delivery room - you seem to like music just as much as we do.
Oh yea, forgive mama for her pitchy voice..its not so good but I try! Ok honey, time for me to get another snack because I can tell you're hungry! Love you!

Its 2pm and I'm back and since I've labeled this post "flashback" I thought it would be fun to show you some pictures of mama & dad when we were kiddos. Try not to laugh too much ok! I think we were pretty cute!

This is your Uncle David and your Dad. Your Uncle David was one of the sweetest guys I'd ever known and I can only imagine how much more spoiled you would be if he was still with us.
If you haven't figured it out already, well your middle name comes from him. He would have been so proud of that - actually I KNOW he's beaming that your middle name is David.

This next picture is your mama when she was only 12 days old.



If you are under 6lbs like the dr's are guessing you are,then you're going to be itty bitty like this.
Just looking at all these old pictures of us makes me wish you were in my arms this very second!
















Here is the picture of us today.


You make the most perfect round belly on mama. But it takes work to make it look like this..and you know a mama always sacrifices for her baby so I spend alot of time in front of the fridge too.







One day I'll show you the series of pictures I took in front of this fridge to document your growth. At one point you were barely a tiny bump and then suddenly there you were, proudly popping out for everyone to see and touch.









I had to take these rather quickly so I can hop back into bed and put my feet up. Daddy left me with a stack of books to read to pass the time. And then I think we'll both have a little nap.
