Counting down..my last month

please pay no attention to my outtie of a belly button.. :)

Dear R________,

Today marks my last month with you. It is definitely bittersweet. On one hand I cannot wait to meet you and kiss your sweet face, dainty hands and lovable toes. On the other hand I know I will miss the feeling of you from the inside. I read a quote a while back that said

"No one else will ever know the strength of my love for you. 

After all, you're the only one who knows what my heart sounds like from the inside." 

Those words could not speak more truth. With both you and your brother, I fell in love with you when I heard your heartbeat for the first time. I found out I was expecting (again with you and your brother) at two weeks along. I had a "feeling" something was different and boy was I right! I loved being pregnant and it seemed like time flew by. I love you with every ounce of my soul.Your daddy and I cannot wait to completely fall in love with you once we meet face to face. I will miss you being a part of me. I will miss all the attention I get from carrying you. I will miss all the smiles and excitement you bring me when you wiggle and squirm around in my tummy (however it is nothing like the break dancing your brother did, and for that, I thank you darling). I will miss grazing my hands over my baby bump as if I'm lightly touching your cheek. I will miss dressing for a pregnant physic. HOWEVER, there is so much to look forward to. These last 30 days or so (depending when you decide to arrive) I will cherish every kick, every dance, every poke of you trying to break free from my belly.

At my appointment today my nurse, upon examination, said that I am currently 2 cm dialated and 60% effaced. (probably TMI, oh well) I don't think I'll be very late with this pregnancy like I was with my son...10 days to be exact.
