37 Weeks

A lot has happened in just a few weeks. We’re already at 37 weeks, and we can’t believe that you will be here so soon. You’re still kicking away in my belly. Your dad and I love it when you do! We hope you are getting used to our voices by now.

You went to another concert this past weekend. The band is from Brooklyn and there called The Pains of Being Pure at Heart. The played a show for free at the South Street Seaport, and sounded great. We were with your Aunt Dani and Uncle Chris, and a few other friends.

The baby shower that your Aunt Dani threw for us was great! There were about 25 friends and relatives there, and you received a lot of great gifts. In fact, your wardrobe is pretty styling!

Your bedroom is pretty much set up! Your dad painted the room perfectly, and the furniture has been delivered. We can’t wait to see you sleep in your little crib that your grandparents bought for you.

We’re also fixing up the living room to make the perfect amount of play space for you. You already have a few toys waiting for you, and we’ll have a comfy carpet on the floor that you can play on!

Your dad and I are so excited to meet you. We hope you’re warm and cozy in my belly, and that you come into the world easily. Love you so much!

33 Weeks


You are 33 going on 34 weeks! The time has gone by so fast. Your dad and I got to see you in a sonogram at 32 weeks. Everything is looking good, and you were looking right at us. We could see your entire face pretty clearly. They also told us that you are already 4 ½ pounds and confirmed once again that you are a little girl.

Technology is amazing, and when/if you decide to have children, you’ll probably be able to see a lot more than we are seeing today. Our parents, your grandparents, didn’t have any sonograms. They didn’t know what gender the baby was until the day of delivery. In fact, my mom didn’t even know that she was having twins until she gave birth to two girls.

My baby shower is this coming weekend, and there will be close to 30 friends and relatives there. My sister, your aunt, is throwing the party at her house, and she’s put a lot of effort into it already. Everyone is so excited to meet you in the next 6 ½ weeks!

You’ve been kicking up a storm. So many people have had the opportunity to feel and see your kicks! I love feeling your little flutters. I have a feeling you’re going to be a great swimmer because you sort of feel like a little mermaid in my belly.

We’re counting down the days until you arrive, and are so excited!
