First letter

dear mommy and daddy,

i thought i'd write you a letter so that you know how i'm doing. we've really only been able to communicate through morning sickness, headaches, and other lovely maladies, so i thought i'd go with something more traditional like a letter.

it's wonderful in here! so warm and cozy, but i could use a little more space. i'm so busy growing and am very long, so i feel like i'm getting a bit squished. i keep bumping into something hard up towards the top...is that your rib? i kinda like tucking myself in there, but then something pushes back at me. is that you mommy? if i move away from the rib then i go closer to the bladder...your choice.

now that i can hear, i'm really enjoying the music you play for me in the car. i really love that justin boy! i especially like when you dance...because when you dance, i dance! i also like hearing daddy laugh. i can almost see his face getting red as he does it! one thing though mommy, i really think you need to clean up your potty mouth. i know i know, you're from new york and that's how they all talk, but do you really want my first word to be f*&k? i know you're trying to cut down on it, but i think you might have to work a little harder on that.

i'm loving your choices of food. the morning cup of tea is so lovely. the baked goods are awesome! i really like the berries and the oranges too! but i'm with GG on this one...you need to drink more water! i think we'd both feel better if you did. go ahead and take a break from reading my letter...get some water...take a nice big gulp...ok good mommy. thank you.

btw what's that sound i hear against my tummy in the evenings? what's that little massage i get each night? are those really kitty cats? are there really two? they're so warm and cozy, just like you. i can't wait to meet them...we're already friends, you know.

i know the past few months have been tough but we're almost through with the pregnancy part. i'm sure i'll miss being in your tummy, but i'm so curious about what things look like out there. are my bedroom walls really the color of butter? do i really get to sleep under pbk bedding? is my stroller really pink? is there really a turtle light waiting just for me? i'm so excited! don't worry, i'm not so excited that i'll come out really early or anything...i'll stay in here a little longer so you have time to get things ready ok? you hang in there mommy!

love,

lil nugget

ps - i can't wait to meet my new pals, matt and hailey! will you tell them i said that please?
