Alexis - 29 Weeks 3 Days Pregnant

Dear Baby Girl,

Sorry I haven't written lately - your big sister has been keeping us so busy and with work and being pregnant... I'm TIRED. Sorry, second kid syndrome already, oops! I got to see you on screen again on Tuesday, and yep, you are definitely still a girl! I had lots more ultrasounds with Mercedes, so it's very exciting to see you at least once again. You have chubby cheeks and long legs (at least according to the ultrasound!) which made me smile, because that's what your big sister had! I can't wait to see if you guys look alike, act alike, develop similarly. 10ish weeks to go! And you are definitely making your presence known - it's amazing how much stronger and more pronounced your movements feel, compared to your sister's.

Love,

Mommy

Mercedes - 25 Months Old

Dear Princess,

You have been in your 'big-girl room' (but still in your crib) for a couple of weeks now - and you love it! There were a couple of nights where you woke up a little confused/scared and some VERY early mornings, but with the help of Daylight Savings Time you seem to be all fixed! I love seeing you run around in there, and to talk so clearly about your surroundings. Having conversations with you is the best thing ever! Not only are you very verbal, you are very, very observant and in tune with emotions and feelings. Such a smart kid - it's truly amazing to see!

Love,

Mommy
