My sweet dear Lucy,
Hi baby girl. You're officially 29 weeks old today (ignore the ultra sound gestation, they don't have my right dates). It seems like it was just yesterday I took a pregnancy test because I had a suspicion I was pregnant. You have grown quite a bit! When I first saw you on the ultrasound you were the size of a blueberry, now you are the size of a squash. In just a few short weeks (10) you will be here. I can't believe how fast time has gone. I have so many emotions that I am feeling right now.
This week brought out even further emotions because we got to see your beautiful face on the 3D ultrasound. It was quite a miracle. You are so beautiful and so perfect. Your 10 beautiful fingers and 10 small toes are right where they should be. Your heart is beating nice and strong (it is quite possibly my favorite sound).
You also opened your eyes! That was amazing to see (and makes me feel good they aren't still fused). Which means you are developing just like you should!
I loved seeing you snuggle up with your arms and play with your fingers. You are so active and so sweet. You are also quite sassy (just like your mom). Today the ultrasound tech tried to get you to show us your full face and you made the cutest angry face. I absolutely loved it, and also wanted to give you a hug and say it's ok you can have whatever you want (I'll eat more chocolate for you).
But after some sweet talk from your mom and dad you decided to give in and show us that beautiful face of yours!
You have such beautiful full lips that are just so kissable (stay away boys!!)
You also must have the same taste in movies as your parents because you made the most adorable blue steel!
I have so many hopes and dreams for you and as it gets closer to delivery date it seems more real! I pray for you to have your fathers faith in God. He never doubts and has a testimony that never waivers. His kind of faith is the kind of faith I am working on achieving.
I hope you never doubt yourself. You are going to be a strong and powerful woman. I can already tell with your personality you will do exactly what you want (but hopefully listen to your parents because I promise we know what's best). You can achieve so much in your life! Your dad and I will support you through everything in your life because your happiness is very important.
I hope you find laughter in everything you do. I've never wanted anybody to be as happy as I hope you will be.
I hope one day you find a man who will treat you like your dad treats me.
I hope you know I will be your best friend your entire life. I love you so much Lucy. I want you to know that you can always come to me and I will never judge you or stop loving you. It isn't easy to grow up but I promise to be here for all the good times and bad.
Lucy Kay you are my first child, and daughter. I am already so incredibly proud of you. I will see you in 10 weeks baby girl. Until then stay comfortable inside my tummy and keep growing and staying healthy. Your mommy & daddy love you so much.
