Dear Peanut,

I have been so sick lately, which is why i havent posted. You are the size of a prune...

I can't drink milk, so I have switched to almond milk..cause I like my cereal. Sometimes oatmeal is ok and sometimes it's not. Bananas are usually ok, as long as my tummy isn't too full. Pears are a big no-no. Anything too spicy or sweet is a no-no.

SMELLS are the bane of my exisistance right now. I used to love scented candles and melts and would have up to 5 burning....but I have banned them all to the cupboard cause even the slightest whiff of them now gives me nauseus goosbumps.

Sleep is my friend and I have become a professional couch potato. I tire really easy. Move a table...nap. Do the dishes...nap. Bend over to pick something up...well you get the picture. I am an opportunistic napper. "5 minutes you say? I will just lay here and zzzZZZ"

I have seen 2 ultrasounds of you. The first one I brought grandma Barbara (who i might dub GG, for great grandma) and she was totally blown away by your little tiny beating heart at 6 weeks.



Then I brought grandma Lori to your 8 week ultrasound. We saw arm and legs nubs and your heartbeat was faster. Jumped from 120 to 168.


I had a dream about a month and a half ago. There were no images, just a tiny little voice and it said "Sabrina". I think it's your choice of names...so I will honor it. I feel so strongly you are going to be a girl I refer to you as "her" and "she"...i will be amazed if you are a boy (and i might even delete all this "im sure you are a girl" stuff....wouldnt wanna give you a complex)

Love,
Mommy

Dear Peanut, 

Had to take a nap in the car today. I'm sleepy and am feeling sick today. I wasnt able to fall asleep, but while I layed there I imaged you as a baby, and a little girl (you are going to be a girl, i know it...) then a young lady. I see you with dark hair and brown eyes but pale skin like mine. You are going to be smart and spunky. The thought made me happy :)

Love, 
Mommy
