Dear Poppy,
This week we told everyone that you are a girl! Right now it’s popular to have a “gender reveal parties” so Mommy
decided to throw a little one just for the family. She had your grandparents & great-grandma over for dinner and baked some chocolate Guinness cupcakes for dessert. Inside the cupcakes Mommy filled the middle with pink frosting.
Mommy and Daddy had fun making everyone wait until dessert to find out –
your Grammy Andersen was especially anxious to finish dinner! After dessert we finally announced on facebook
so everyone interested could finally know that we are having a girl.
Mommy & Daddy also got lots of stuff for you this
week. One of Daddy’s co-worker’s, Zaid,
had 2 babies in the last couple of years and doesn’t need a lot of her stuff
anymore. She very generously gave or is
letting us borrow many items, including her maternity clothes for Mommy to
wear. We picked up the stuff on Saturday
and met her 2 ½ year old daughter, Zoey, and her 6 month old son, Finn. They were both so cute and fun! Hopefully you can meet them too! It’s also really exciting to have some of
your stuff in the house. Mercedes is
already scared of your car seat – she is going to have to get used to lots of
new things soon!
On Tuesday Mommy is finally certain she felt some kicks! People kept saying it feels like butterflies
or gas, but I describe it a bit differently. It’s amazing to
finally feel you though!
Current Size: Mango or Heirloom Tomato (6 inches long)
Love,
Mommy & Daddy
