Tidbits of life

It has been a while since my last post. Life often gets in the way of goals and intentions.

All of my resources say you are now the size of a pecan or a blueberry. They don't seem to agree with each other always.

Mommy is feeling pretty rough this last two weeks. I am very tired and my legs are cramping like crazy. I've read that this is normal but it is not fun at all. You are worth it all though baby.

All of our family has found out now. I got a call from your Papa and Nana D in Colorado. They are very very incredibly excited. They are going to work with your Aunt Shilo to try to find a way to get Mommy a very important chair for when you arrive. If it works it will be a lovely old rocking chair just for us.

Your Aunts and Uncles are very excited too. They all really wish we would move back to Colorado so they would be able to get to know you better. Though Aunt Kristy lives not far from us in Florida and I think she'd prefer we stay here.

Papa and I went to another soccer game and it turns out you like Cuban food.

Tomorrow Mommy and Papa might get to hear your heart beat for the first time! We have a midwife appointment. As long as we like the main midwife when we meet here we will be going ahead with the first prenatal appointment.


I'll update more soon. Don't you worry though, you are always on my mind and as always right there with me.

Love you baby. Please stay with me. We can't wait to meet you!

First Fetal Football Game

You should know, Baby B, that in this family when I say foot ball, I mean the kind actually played with your feet.

Daddy surprised us with a trip to a Irish pub, which even though I couldn't "pub" was great for me. Mommy loves the atmosphere and food in those places. Apparently you like vinegar covered potatoes as much as Mommy does. We got to walk around downtown Orlando a bit too. This is great for you especially. You are making your Mommy very tired and trying to get her to walk around for twenty minutes is not easy.

After that we went to an Orland City Football Club game.  Your first Football game!!! Sure it was in fetal form but you might as well know. They played against the Harrisberg City Islanders and won 3-1. They also wore pink breast cancer support jerseys. We like that, someday I'll tell you about your Great Grandma Scal, we called her Jam and Green Pees. We wore pink too, in support of her.

Here you are, dressed in pink and ready for the game.

Your amazing father. He was going for pensive here.

The pitch, and a beautiful sunset just for you (and a couple hundred other screaming fans

 Other then that let's see what has changed…

You are the size of a poppy seed, and might have a heartbeat. Mom is sore and nauseated but has yet to throw up! I started working on your blanket. Its going to match your furry sisters, that one was supposed to be yours but somehow over the last year was accosted by animals.

 Daddy thinks you're a girl and keeps calling you by your girl name. Mom keeps calling you your boy name just to create some balance. We have a broad idea for your nursery already and I do think your going to like it.

Moms been juicing vegetables and some fruit to fulfill any extra caloric intake requirements. Though so far I've just been making it in place of parts of meals. So far you seem happy about this. Growing strong.

Next week we will go pick out a midwife!

Love you Baby B, stay safe. Talk to you again soon.
