Baby Bear #1


Sweet Baby Bear,                                                                         May 3, 2012


When your dad and I first learned that I was pregnant your nickname was easy to choose-Baby Bear. I don't really know why but it seemed quite fitting and it has stuck, just between us, as your nick name. 

The first time that your dad and I heard your heartbeat we cried together-162 beats per minute-what a healthy baby you are! We cried tears of joy and gratitude. Then we saw you, you were jumping and bouncing around like you typically do whenever I have sonogram appointments. I can't tell if this means that you are camera shy or that you are just performing and trying to get our attention to take a picture. Either way, we are completely in love with you. 

I felt you for the first time on Monday, April 30. I was lying on my back in the baby room at work and felt a little tickle when I breathed in. I took a deep breath and held it...then I felt you move around. It was just a short flutter but it meant the world to me. 


Our first real interaction, you know aside from the lovely morning sickness you've blessed me with. :) 


Today I was lying on my back in the baby room again hoping to just catch a flutter like I did on Monday; instead you made your presence known in more than just a flutter. I felt you move around for several minutes before settling in, I assume to sleep-you're taking after you momma. Sleep=Love. 


I can't wait until your dad can feel you move, what a blessing you are to us! We are so excited to have you be part of our lives. 



Love, 


Your ever adoring Mother.
  





Your sweet little foot at 12 weeks






YOU at 12 weeks.
