Oh, Baby!

I can believe that in three weeks we will know if you are a girl or boy! I got a sewing machine for Christmas and I kept thinking if it was a girl I could make her dresses like I used to do for your mommy!

Or I can get a big roll of denim and make lots of blue jeans if you are a boy! I just want to know so we can give you a nickname while we wait for mom and dad to decide on your real name! Mommy used to call Miles Mojito (little monkey)before they decided on a real name.

Mommy said she can't wait to feel you move as that is when a baby starts to feel "real".

Christmas isn't here yet but we celebrated yesterday as I have to fly to Hawaii with a family (I did tell you I was a travel nanny, right?)on Christmas eve. We did a video chat and your brother was a bit cranky! He went with mom and dad to a party the night before and didn't get all his "beauty" sleep! But he did grin at me which is always priceless!It was fun watching him sit on mommy's lap and she read him the two books Uncle Clyde and I bought him. And I got to talk a bit with your mommy which is always great....I wonder how many times mommy and daddy will have to read the Llama Llama stories...

I was thinking of you when I bought them too. I know you will love books just like him so we are getting a good supply for you to read someday! He also has a good supply of Baby Signs so you will get a head start and maybe Miles will even teach you how to sign. You are going to be so smart because he is going to teach you so much! (don't let him teach you how to stuff everything down the couch though!)

I just wanted to say a few words so that someday you will know how much you were loved and thought about long before you were born...
