March 2, 2010

Hello my sweet 22 week old baby girl! Tomorrow is day one of week 23. You will be here before we know it! The doctor's appointment went perfectly last week and your heart beat was loud and clear—150BPM.

Grace and I went over to Jamie’s for the day today and had a wonderful time. You are getting big and Jamie is really starting to show. Today was especially perfect because I felt you kick me two times!!! I loved feeling you finally!

Gracie and I talked to you and told you how much we love you. She was really cute talking to Jamie’s belly. She said “Hi Lilly, it’s your Sister. I love you!” I, of course, always talk to you too—especially since you can hear us now. I want you to know your Mama’s voice.

We have decided that we are going to spell your name Lilly. We like it so much more in writing with the two l’s and since it is short for Lillian, it only makes sense.

Your Dad is really coming along on Grace’s room—the walls are now almost all painted. I bought some picture frames, etc. for her room so she will be excited to move out of “your room” soon.

After we get her all settled in, then it will be time to empty your closet, dresser, etc. then deep clean the room, refresh the paint, wash all of your clothes and put the crib back together (it is a toddler bed right now).

I’m going to get some cute letters to put your name on the wall too. I just can’t believe that in only 4 months you will be home sweet home! Our little darling—our second love—our little flower.

No other huge news to report. I am all done taking on new clients and I only have a couple left now. I’m pretty much a full time stay at home mom and I LOVE it!

As excited as I am for you to join us, I do also remember all of the work and sleepless nights that come along with a newborn. That being said, I am making a point to also savor all of my peaceful quiet time now because I know it is short-lived. I am also savoring my time with Grace now that I am not working. We are going to have as many fun days as we can doing little day outings and adventures between now and July.

That is your 22 week update, and ours too!

We love you honey!!!

Mom
