Lounging around...

Dear Lil Sprout,

Well, I haven't really written in a while, and I'm not really sure why because we have been on bedrest for 3.5 weeks, so it's not like I've been super busy!  You decided you'd try to pull a stunt and see if you could come early, so you landed us in bed at 30.5 weeks...  Way to go, little one. :P

The good news is that you had both of your showers, and you got so much nice stuff from so many people who love you already. :)  Your room is finished, and it looks awesome!  I am super proud of how it turned out, and I hope that you love it [once you are old enough to appreciate it].  We set up your swing in the living room today.  It's getting very real that you're going to be here with us soon!  I am excited and terrified at the same time.

At your last growth measurement at 33 weeks even, they estimated that you may already weigh 5 lbs. 10 oz.!  That can be way off, but it doesn't sound like you're going to be a tiny guy.  You also have a 36 week head already.  Mommy isn't so thrilled about that one...

So, we're just hanging out and being low key.  Keep hanging out in there until at least the end of October.  We can't wait to meet you either, but we want to bring you home with us and not have to leave you behind at the hospital...  So listen to your mama! :)

Love,

Mommy
