October 28, 2011

Dear Maci,

It's been a while since I've taken the time to write to you, little baby! Your Nana and Papa finally got to see you! They've missed you a lot. I'm sure it's hard for them to be so far away while you're having all of your firsts, but we're going to make up for it during all of our visits. Hopefully we get to see them again over the Holidays.



That's your Grandma Tess holding you. She was there when you were born! We went out to dinner with your Nana and Papa and also your Great Uncle Nick who is only 17 (lol!) and cousin Marissa. Then we went to visit your Great Great Grandma Eva and Great Grandpa Richard. You have so much family, Maci! Nana and Papa couldn't stop talking about the day you are old enough to come down to the lake. Papa is so ready to start spoiling you and take you swimming! I know a lot of your childhood memories will be at the lake. We're going to cook out and hopefully ride on the jetski and the boat and swim all day long. I cannot wait to share that with you.


As of today you are 15 weeks and 4 days old. AKA 3.5 months. Where has the time gone? I can't process the fact that I have a 3.5 month old. You're about to experience your first holiday. Halloween! I have a tutu and tights and pink shoes for you. I think you're going to be a ballerina! Cutest ballerina ever! AND we're finally getting family pictures taken tomorrow. We've had to reschedule several times, but its really going to happen this time! I cant wait, because then we can send out christmas cards! The Holidays are going to be here so soon...

Lately you've started laughing out loud. Not a whole lot, but it's the cutest thing ever when you do! And you looove to take a bath. You kick your feet and turn your head towards the water to try to get it into your mouth. It's soooo funny! I wouldn't think that warm bath water would be very tasty, silly girl. You make us laugh so much. Whenever daddy is holding you on his legs, you kick him so much. He thinks it's funny because you'll hold your foot up like you're warning him, and then you'll just start kicking away. Your legs are never still! I think we're in trouble when you finally start walking...



Over the last few weeks you've finally started sleeping all night. It's been WONDERFUL! I never minded getting up with you during the night, but I'm not gonna lie... sleeping 8 hours straight is one of the best feelings ever. Unfortunately you've started to tease me. Twice this week you've gotten up during the night to eat, and to cry. I wonder if you're going through a growth spurt or something... hopefully it doesn't last long! :)

Well, I have poopy pants to change. I guess I'll end this by saying that I love you and I'm so happy I get to be with you every day while you grow! It may not last much longer (That'll be another post), but I'm going to cherish it while it lasts.


Love,

              Mama
