I am 33 weeks and 2 days pregnant. I'm playing you music from a music box your dad bought me at a thrift store several years ago. I can feel you moving and kicking around and I love you so much it makes me want to cry. A year ago at this time I was just beginning to think about the possibility of being pregnant and a year before that I was thinking about not ever being pregnant. How quickly things can change. Everyone keeps asking "You're probably ready to get her out of there huh"? No, no I am not, you're nursery is not done, the house needs a lot more cleaning and I don't have enough diapers stocked up yet. Still though I'm so excited to meet you, to see your face, your eyes, your fingers and toes, smell you, hold you and even hear you cry. I hope you take it easy on me because I am a newbie but I'm ready to learn with you what this mommy/baby thing is all about. Your Dad is also very excited. You'll love him, and he will be even more in love with you. It did take him a short time to get used to the idea that you were not a boy but now I can see in his eyes the excitement of a baby girl when I show him a cute dress or onesie I received as a gift. So far I have only purchased one item of clothing for you, all the rest have been gifts. The one item I did buy is a dress that you wont even be able to wear until around your first birthday but I am already looking forward to seeing it on you. For now I'll keep preparing your room, our home and my head. 6 more weeks :)
