Dear Baby D,

Baby D,

We have officially made it past 39 weeks and you are now considered "full term." Aside from the occasional daydream of Taco Bell Cheesy Gordita Crunches, Cherry Pepsi, Chocolate Candy, and Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream, my first thought everyday for the last 9 months has been to keep you healthy, safe, and growing.

Although I swore that you were going to come 4 weeks early, each day I prayed that you would "cook a little longer" and breathed a sigh of relief every week that passed.

Now as we approach 12/19/17, I'm getting more and more anxious to meet you. Along with a whole bunch of loving family, great friends, and amazing neighbors - your daddy and I can't wait to welcome you to the world.

Ps I know you may have heard me and your aunties joke around about someone named "Aiden" being big enough to beat you up. Don't be scared to come - your cousin is one of the sweetest people you will meet and can't wait to meet his future best buddy.

With Love,

Your anxious mama who can barely roll out of bed and needs to lay off the Baskin Robbins
