  • Dear Aidyn,
           Happy 30 weeks to you and me, sweetpea!  We're officially 7.5 months along and you'll be here in just 9 short weeks!  It's so hard to believe... Sometimes I still want to hyperventilate thinking about how soon it is.... and then the other half of me is so excited I almost forget to breathe... It balances out I guess. 
            Mrs. Linda Wood is planning our first baby shower and it's on Sunday!  I am SO excited to see all the neat things and pretty clothes we're going to get for you!  Everyone is so generous... I still haven't finished wedding thank you notes yet...  yikes.  Your daddy and I will be married 1 year a week from today!  He's got a surprise planned for all day August 4...  I think we might be going on a little trip.  We'll see!  He won't tell... even when he's half asleep and I ask him over and over.... haha!
           Your room is pretty much finished!  We still have to do some odds and ends and get the closet cleaned out and all... but as far as decorations go, it's about done!  Daddy and I finished painting the letters yesterday and I made your curtains and the cover for the rocking chair last night.  Here's the panoramic view of your room, starting as you look in from the hall!   
              
            Then these are some flowers your Daddy got me just "because".   He's so great, baby girl.  You're gonna have him wrapped around your finger, I know.  I'm so excited to see him holding you...
            I made an appointment for maternity pictures and your first photoshoot as a newborn today.   We have our childbirth classes tomorrow night and Thursday night... we already toured the hospital where we're gonna have you- they finished remodeling and it looks fantastic.  We're doing our best, trying to get ready for you... I don't think we ever really will be though.
            I can tell you've gotten a lot bigger... it feels like you're running out of room in there.  Sometimes you stretch your legs out so hard that my entire stomach changes shape... It pokes out on my sides and it's flat around my belly button!  You get hiccups a lot too... and they make you mad.  Ha!  Almost every morning you get hiccups after I eat breakfast and then you stretch and wiggle all around for about 15 minutes til they're gone.  It makes me laugh... except for when you stretch so hard it hurts...
            Well my love, it's almost Tuesday now and I didn't sleep much last night so I'm gonna lay down.  I hope I can sleep better tonight.  My back has been hurting so much lately I can't fall asleep...
                                                                                         but you're so worth it.
         love you.      forever and ever.
                                                              mommy
