To My Little "BB" (Baby Bish)

Oh sweet little one, everyone warned me and mocked me as I plunged into my first pregnancy armed with scrapbooks, calendars, photos, keepsakes and notes that there was no chance my other children would share in such detailed recording of their in-utero and infancy. However, I must also tell you that most of your big sister's keepsakes are still sitting in an unorganized pile waiting to be filed into a book! Anyway, I want you to know that mommy is trying very hard to love you in your own unique way already and even if you don't have a whole lot recorded over the next few months (but I'll try) I don't love you any less. I had to write you a quick note to tell you what you've been like these first few months of your life. Well, you are very different from your sister at this age-see look how unique you are already! I have been a little tired, but nothing like I had been with Cole. Which is a blessing considering now that I have her I can't just take a nap whenever I want! I have virtually no nausea with you, which I also said about Colette, but now I realize how much nausea I did have with her considering I have none now! Honestly little babe, I barely feel pregnant! I am glad we have already gotten to see you twice in these 12 weeks so I can be reminded that your little beating heart is truly dwelling within me. We went to our first appointment with Dr. Flemming last week and daddy, Colette and I all got to see you kick your long skinny legs and wave your arm at us. Even at such a young age, your daddy and I agree that we can already see how different you are from Cole and how you are your own person. You have a bigger head than she did and very long legs! You're definitely not as active as she was either! Well, I'm not tired and I don't have nausea. Do I have any symptoms to remind me of you daily? Yes! And boy are they silly ones that I never had with Colette. I am having super crazy dreams-every night! I rarely dream, let alone so vividly, it is quite a ride. Now don't get offended by this next one, but I am very impatient and get easily angry. I think that it is my hormones leaning in a different direction than the weepiness I experienced last time around. Your poor daddy is so patient with me, I don't know what I would do without him. We absolutely cannot wait to meet you. Dad thinks you're a boy, I have no idea. Either way, you're gonna be the best!
