Your Daddy

This still makes me laugh! We were at Epcot, Disney in Orlando with all the Gulley's for Christmas when your Dad told me he was going to walk over to the face paint. I found him like this! I about died of hysterics. I was laughing so hard my belly would hurt! I can't wait for him to surprise you with his antics. He said he did it because he knew it would make me laugh.

I think you turned on this day while we were in Orlando because the midwives said you were breech before we left and when I went in for our appointment when we returned home you had turned. Hooray! I admit this has been on my heart. I kept thinking of you and imagining you in the head down position so we could have a dream birth. I thought I was going to have it on my prayer list for the next few weeks but triumphantly you rearranged yourself without me knowing! So clever and quick are you! I had two days where my entire body just ached. I think it was partly because of an exhausting (but great) busy December at work. Looking back, the way my back, feet, and stomach hurt I think you might have been shifting positions and my body was just adjusting. So, sadly while we were walking around Epcot waiting in lines I was ready to just lay down. That was when your Dad did this and instantly cheered up the pregger body blues. I also soaked in the hot tub when we returned home (it was only on warm). It felt so good I couldn't resist. It was so great to talk with your Aunties Lori and Corin about everything too! I have Corin's face beautifully imprinted in my heart when I saw her reaction to you. She flowed over with warmth and love. It makes me feel so good inside to see how everyone loves you as we do! You are the constant song in my heart...I love you darling growing baby Roo!
