Dear Olive,
Its November now. You are going to be here in a month! That is so crazy! Its almost impossible to imagine being this excited about meeting someone but since you are swimming around in me all day long, its hard not to think about you all the time.
You are kicking harder and harder these days and its awesome to feel. I can tell when you are awake and when you're sleeping and I love it so much I will actually miss being pregnant with you. I will be more excited to know you in person and get to see you, but there is something incredibly special about feeling you in there, wiggling around, dreaming the day away.
I'm getting nervous about the birth but the excitement of you're arrival is so much larger in my mind. We had a baby shower for you on Saturday with our friends at our house. It was wonderful. People brought you so many great things and they are all counting the days to meet you too. It was a woodland theme and we worked on the decorations leading up to it, I will put photos in your baby book so you can see what we did for you. I hope you like it!
Dad and I set up the bassinet you are going to sleep in for the first few months last night. Its from Nana and Papa and it turns into a playpen so you will have for many years. Dad's putting the finishing touches on the change table for us and he's done such a terrific job on it, all learning as he went. Its pretty amazing.
The stroller is ready, the car seat is all set to be installed, the nursery is coming together - all we need now is you little one. And I just can't wait.
Love you so much already,
xo Mama
