a letter to #3

dear sweet baby #3,

you are going to have the best set up once you get here. you are going to have the best big sister. she thinks about you daily and talks about you constantly. she tells me still, "Mom, can you believe we are going to have a baby girl!"

on top of that you are going to have the best big brother. he might have a hard time sharing his mom with you at first but you are in luck my little lady, because he loves babies. loves them. i'm pretty sure that he is going to adore you. you know, after he gets over that urge to beat up on you. i'm sure he'll go through that stage, they all do, but i'll be sure to protect you. promise.  

we are all excited about you. especially now that we know for sure that you are a girl. a girl! i still can't believe it. we all thought you would be (except dad, he never would say for sure what he guessed). we would have been so happy either way (except Amelie, she would have been crushed) also, i'm super grateful to you for not making me sick the whole 9 months. thanks for the break. you are already fantastic. i've been trying to eat lots of healthy food to make up for the last few months of sick food. we want you to come out nice and chubby you know. we like our babies chubby.

i love you so much already

love, mom
