Letters to Bug-Week 33

4/23/17


Good morning sweet E!!!

What a week we have had! This week was filled with celebrations and fun and everything to do with you! We went back to our hometown in Minnesota, and got to see all of our family and friends. We started our weekend with a dinner with mom's LuLaRoe friends. They were so sweet and had all pitched in to get you an amazing gift card we will be using for stuff you need! On Saturday, we started our day out bright and early! We went to the 3-D ultrasound and got one last good look at you! You are so precious and amazing and it was so awesome to see your face and get a better picture of what you look like. Now when I think of you, I have a closer version to think of! You are still quite stubborn for ultrasounds, and wouldn't move your foot away from your face, but it was the sweetest thing ever. Apparently you really really really like having your one little foot by your face! You also wouldn't get in a good position to see your cute little nose so every picture we have it looks different!!! Here is my favorite!!!


After the ultrasound, we went and met up with the amazing Tori, who took maternity pictures for me and your dad. We had so much fun taking pictures and thinking about you and enjoying these last few weeks with you in mommy's tummy. Your dad and I can be kind of goofballs, so I hope Tori had fun! We can't wait to see them when they come back! Here are a few from Tori!


 
 









Saturday afternoon and Sunday afternoon, we had your baby showers! So many family and friends were able to join us, and even those who weren't able to join us sent us well wishes! You are so very loved and people are so very very excited for your arrival. People have been waiting for you to come for a long time, you definitely know how to get the anticipation up! Your aunt Katie made tons of amazing decorations and centerpieces and so much more. It was the best experience I could've ever asked for and I just hope you always know how much you are loved by not only your dad and I, but your whole family and all of our friends!

According to the apps, you are basically just working on putting on weight. I know from our ultrasound that you are about 5 pounds! The app tells us that you are about 16 or 17 inches long at this point. Apparently, your head will grow a bit this week to accommodate for that growing brain! And enjoy your space in there, because this is the peak of the fluid around you, and things are about to get a lot tighter!

Well that is it for today baby bug! We love you and we are counting down the days until we see you!

Love,

Mommy
