Happy 2011, my soon to be child! Finally, the year that you will grace us with your much anticipated presence and I for one, can not wait! Today I was thinking of how much I already love you and find it hard to imagine that when I meet you, my love for you is going to skyrocket!
Daddy and I were looking at my last ultrasound pictures from December 17, the visit where you waved at me before heading east, and the details of your face are incredible. Totally makes you seem so much more real. I mean, of course you're real, I feel you so much in a single day that's there's no denying you exist, but to actually get to see your face and think of who you will look like. Daddy and I have decided you're a mix of us, an elf and the Simpsons. Still appears that you have Daddy's forehead. And now, unfortunately, it looks like you have my nose - please let this picture just be from a bad angle or else I told Daddy we have to start saving up for a nose job. Strangely enough, looks like you have elf ears and the Simpson pout/chin - hoping these things can also be attributed to a bad pic. If anyone reading would like to cast their vote, including sex of the baby, please leave a comment, thank you :-)

And here's a view of you from the outside world taken today on New Year's Day morning.
I'm HUGE! I wonder how much bigger this belly is going to get. It's as if it's taken on a life all of it's own, which it kind of has I guess. That life, being you, my sweet child!
And speaking of life, on Monday I get to see you again... and also find out if I have gestational diabetes. I hope not, things are getting complicated enough without having to worry about that too. By complicated, I just mean that we are in the seventh inning stretch here and there's so much we have to do to prepare for your arrival.
Which I am eagerly awaiting! All I want to do is meet you, count your fingers and toes, and love you to pieces... this year, next year and for many many more years to come!
XOXO
Mommy
