7 months and counting...

Oh sweet baby Gonzy #2, we've reached the third and FINAL trimester!!! Yeah! This is a huge success and just making me so much more anxious to meet you face to face! Can't believe that in just 12 weeks it'll be the due date of your expected arrival, June 12th!! That's so exciting and yet so nerve-racking for your arrival as I want the house perfect for you! So many things must be done before you come, but I'm taking one day/week at a time in preparing to bring you home. You're such an active little girl already, that I know you're going to keep your daddy & I busy as we watch you grow up and become such a beautiful young lady! Already, we love you so much! Last week I officially changed my bedroom around, and now it'll be ready for you as you'll be staying with your daddy & I for a bit once we bring you home. I can't wait for our late night nursing time and conversations as I sit and fall so in love with you. I truly couldn't be more excited to have a second little girl! 

Can't wait to see you babygirl!! 

Love, 

Your mama 

Thoughts...

BabyGIRL Gonzy 2,

I can't believe that now I'm 26 weeks along & you'll be here so soon! I feel like I have an endless list of things to do before your arrive in June. I feel like you may even arrive early, so every week means BIG things need to be marked off the calendar to make sure we're ready for your arrival. I want the house to be perfect when we bring you home. This week I'm going to be sorting through the clothes that you'll be wearing in a few months! I already know I'll be tearing up imagining you wear them. It's an emotional thing thinking about having a child who you love so much, and yet can't see at this time. Having patience is so challenging, especially when I want to look at your little face and body and just kiss you. 

Tonight, your daddy was praying for you and myself and my body has been aching from carrying you, and immediately you began kicking. It was so sweet, as if you knew across the room he mentioned you, an you wanted to say "thanks daddy!" I can't wait to see when your daddy looks at you for the first time, because he's going to love you so intensely and be willing to give up his own life for you. You're so loved already my little lady! Can't wait to meet you! 

Love, 

Your mama 

PS- thanks for all the kicks you gave me as I wrote this. You must know I'm thinking about you! MWAH!

My 27th birthday, 25 weeks & 4 days along.
