Hello, Little Baby

~ Kristin

[No, this is not a birth announcement. I wish! :)]

Well hello,
 Little baby.
Your eyes have never seen the sun
You should know
Little baby
That I am the lucky one

Little one,

It’s MARCH. This is your month, baby!

Even though you keep me up at night (already?!) and give me some mighty hefty (painful) kicks from inside…We’re so excited to meet you! Don’t wait too long to come out and see us. After all, you’ll have way more room to explore out here. ;). Only 10 more days! Or will you come sooner?

We have your white crib set up. I’m sewing you a soft fuzzy blanket and getting your little room all ready for you. Your name is all picked out and we’re so curious — are you a little lad or a little lassie?

I can’t wait to be your mama and welcome you to the big bright world. IMG_0291 IMG_0295

I get to be the one to hold your hand
I get to be the one.
Through birthdays and broken bones
I'll be there to watch you grow
I get to be the one.
 How does someone so small
 Hold my heart so tightly
I don't even know you
I love you completely

  2. sigh.. I can’t wait till you can experience it all.. Motherhood is the most incredible thing, ever.. Super hard at times, and some days you just want to sit down and cry with them, but those first smiles, the first coo’s.. That lil Baby will melt your heart soo many times, especially in those moments when you are just so frustrated because you don’t have a clue what to do, they always chose those moments to do something cute! 😉 From midnight rocking sessions to mid-day blowouts, every single second is soo worth it.. Its totally cliche’ to say it, but savor every single moment, because one day you’ll blink and you realize its March 2016 and your baby is about to turn 1.. True story! 😀 Or at least thats what I’m dealing with right now. 😉 So enjoy those last kicks and stretches because soon those will be but a memory, a sweet sweet memory..

    1. Aww, this is about enough to make me cry! Right now I’m ready to be able to sleep “normally” — I know, I know, I won’t get a lot of extra sleep for awhile, but at least I will be able to turn over in bed without huffing & puffing & getting up and trotting to the bathroom. lol! Thanks for the reminder to enjoy those little kicks & stretches — they really are quite darling. Well, most of them are. 😉

      1. Haha so true!! Being able to roll over in bed without getting momentum is pretty awesome!! 😉 Even better is being able to go all night without peeing! 😉

  5. I’m not sure why I never discovered your blog until now… but it’s quite fun! Keep it up.

    Also, and more importantly, congratulations mama, a baby will completely change your life, and it’s oh, so wonderful!
