It was you!

We got to see you this morning! When they told us you are a girl, I just knew it was you that I got to meet in my dream the other night. You looked just as perfect as I knew you would. Wow, I could have stayed there staring at you on that screen all day. You are amazing!!! I could not believe how much you are moving and swimming around. You held up your little hand like you were saying hello to us. I have been looking at these pictures of you all day long. Thanks for being you.

Love,

Mom

Was that you?

Dear Babins,

I've felt you move a little bit these last few days! I can actually just barely feel you in there now- thanks for reminding me you are alive and well. Your dad tried to feel your kicks with his hand from the outside, but your kicks aren't quite strong enough yet.  You'll get there in a few weeks.

Last night I dreamed about you, at least I think it was you. You were a girl, and you had dark hair when you were born, and then it got lighter like my hair as you got older. You were absolutely perfect, and so beautiful. The most perfect little creature I'd ever seen. We were in complete awe of you. We named you Mariah Katherine Morris in my dream.  I can't WAIT to see you on the ultrasound in two days.

Love,

Mom

Keep Growing

Dear Babins,

Can you believe you've already been growing in my belly for about 4 months?! We're getting closer to the halfway point. I wonder if it's going by fast for you. I worry so much if I'll be the kind of mom you deserve. I am trying hard to prepare. This Friday, we'll get to see you on the ultrasound for the first time! We are so excited! I should be able to start feeling you move around sometime soon, I'm excited for that too. I wonder if I've felt you already- it's hard to tell. You're still so little. I still don't look very pregnant, but I do look noticeably chubby around the middle. I was feeling so sick last week but I am doing much better now. I know you are worth it a million times over. Keep growing strong.

I love you,

Your Mom
