Almost Christmas

Mummy finished work on Friday, everyone at work is very excited about meeting you and has given mummy lots of presents for you. Tomorrow mummy and daddy will be travelling down to Bournemouth to see all your family there.. your Nan and Grandpi, Great Nan and Bampa, Uncle Steve and Uncle Matt, Auntie Wendy and Uncle Royce, Auntie Katie and Uncle Alan, and your cousins Amber, Leah and another baby bump. Hopefully we'll get to stop off at the Temple on the way up to York to see more of your family that love you already - you are so loved. We'll see your Grandma and Grandad, Uncle Joe, Auntie Hannah, Uncle Ben, Auntie Jan, cousin Sally as well as Great Grandma Widdowson, Great Grandad Widdowson and Great Grandma Munzer, oh and Auntie Jean and Uncle Randy. Wow! That's a lot of people! and there's more family too.. you just wait.

We are so excited to see you. Daddy really can't wait. I keep telling him not to get too excited because although you could conme early you might also be late (your due 24th January). Daddy was being silly this morning.. he said he might go and register your name as Felix, even though I say that its a cat food name.. I don't think he will really though.. hopefully you'll like whichever name we choose for you. We are thinking really hard, we want it to be special.

We love you baby! xxx

In my tummy!

Hey Baby! Just thought I'd write you a little note. You seem to be moving around a lot at the moment. Sometimes we even get to see you move! Daddy likes to know when you're moving around too, so that he can feel you. We love you so much! The other day I found out more about the day you come into the world. Mummy is a little worried about how all that will go, but with Daddy there all will be OK, and we are so excited to see your beautiful face. Love you loads! Mummy xxx

Mummy loves you!

There's just over 4 months until you're due to come into this world. I'm so excited to see you. I want to hold you, and kiss you and see you looking back at me. It's hard to really comprehend that such a wonderful baby is growing inside of me. At times it's easier than others. Today you were moving around while the Sacrament was passed. I like to feel you moving around inside - it makes it more real to me. Daddy likes it too, it is great when he gets to feel you too. It seems that you like Daddy's warm hands holding my now very round tummy. You move more. Hopefully in the coming weeks you'll start kicking lots! Maybe we can then see you kicking and not just feel you. I just can't wait to hold you. I love you!

A Message from Daddy

It was so wonderful to see the first little pictures of you, as you seemed to look out at us, and kick your tiny arms and legs to say hello. I remember your mother and I laughing with joy as we saw that together, and realised again how lucky we were to get to be your parents.

Your wonderful mother has sometimes felt unwell, and often feels tired - but she is so happy to go through these things for you. This is because you are so special to us; our first child, the beginning of our family.

We both love you very much. We'll do everything we can to prepare, so when you come to us, we'll be able to give you everything you need to grow up healthy and happy.

One day you will be able to read this, and know just how much we loved you, even now, before we can hold you in our arms. Thank you, our sweet baby, for bringing us so much joy and love!
