Letters for Layla.

To our little Layla Blaine...

You haven't quite arrived, yet you are already keeping us on our toes! Mommy had our 34 week check in and was able to sneak a peek at you (my favorite kind of visit!). I guess you decided being head down wasn't as fun as being heads up, you crazy girl. So, for now..you are one stubborn breech baby! Time's a tickin little lady...our midwife is giving you 3 more weeks to turn otherwise we are headed for C-section Town. I'm not worried, either way..you just do your thing in there!

Mommy is just happy that you are thriving and growing perfectly! Almost 6 pounds already and I'm wondering how much of that weight you are carrying in those chubby cheeks of yours! From one angle, all we could see was your cheek. I can't wait to kiss those cheeks and see your sweet face. 

Looks like mommy & daddy's thick hair gene has been passed along as well...you had your hands all wrapped up in all that hair of yours! I can't believe you have so much hair as I was born bald and I don't think Daddy had all that much hair either. Aren't you just fabulous?

I have spent the past few days going through all of your stuff & washing your cute clothes. I'm starting to wonder if some of these newborn size outfits are even going to fit! They look so tiny.

You have about a million boxes coming in this week...our house is quickly shifting into full on baby palooza and I love it! Even better, your daddy will be here to help me go through everything! He will be here in less than 48 hours..I still can't believe it. I can't wait for him to see and feel you in action! You have really been wild in there lately. I guess all of those "punches" to my cervix were actually your little feet! Are you stretching out those long legs?

I can tell your daddy is so excited to get home. He loves you so much! It's cute to see how much he wants to give you to make sure that you are a happy baby. He won the epic Mamaroo battle! I hope you love all five motions that it provides..he thought you should definitely have all five. Funny. I was trying to get you into a Rockaroo which only has one...oh no, what kind of sad life would it have been with only one motion? See..he loves you. 

You are coming into this world surrounded by people who love you so much! Everyone can't wait to meet you..especially us. I can't wait to see if you're as stubborn and crazy once you are born as you seem to be in there. 

I love you!

xoxo.
