Merry Christmas, baby.

Baby Reeder,

Well, we celebrated Christmas today and you were certainly present, just not in the way we thought you'd be. You're still safely tucked away in Mommy's belly, about as comfy as ever. You've been kneeing Mommy a lot lately, an indication that you're just about out of room in there. But that hasn't motivated you to get movin'; you've stayed put in a little curled up ball. If we didn't have your birthday scheduled for next week, we'd worry you might stay in there forever!

You were at the forefront of our minds all day today (not like you aren't every day, but it was especially overwhelming today.) We both rubbed Mommy's belly a lot today and pushed back on your little knee as it poked out of my right side. You got so many Christmas gifts from your grandparents, aunts & uncles, and cousins. They are all so excited to meet you and get to know you. Mommy & Daddy have a few gifts for you as well, and we'll leave them all under the tree until you come home with us.

Mommy and Daddy can't wait for you to become our tiny roommate. We are thrilled to know we'll be ringing in the new year with you next week. We love you more than you'll ever know, a love that we promise will grow more and more each and every day. Merry Christmas, sweetheart. See you soon!

Love,
Mommy & Daddy :)
