Hello Little One,
It's quite late or early, depends on how you view time. But here I am awake and thinking of you as well as a few other things. Mommy is trying to organize her thoughts and dedicate a little more time to her ever-changing body. Preparing for your arrival is quite the task but I can't afford to fall behind on my personal accomplishments, baby. Your dad is in the living room right now. It's 2:45 am and he's working. Monday's are his busiest days and so he's preparing for that. He works really hard to provide the best possible life for us. I can't wait for you to bond with him.
We took you to your third concert in utero this Friday. Your first was Beyonce at about 10 weeks or so, with our cousin Kristy and your aunt Jessica. Your second was Dave Matthews Band (at around 18 weeks), which dad and I really enjoy listening to. And your third was Kanye West, which is likely the only one you were able to hear. We had such a fun time and mommy danced and bounced around a lot. I'm sure you were able to feel the party!
We've been organizing things around the house as we make room for you. I'm hoping to finally build your crib. But first, I'd like to assemble your dad's patio furniture. I do foresee some early mornings or late nights out there for me too-- as soon as the mosquitos settle down!
So here we are; growing. Everyday. I'm going to try to get some sleep now. I'd like to have a productive Monday. If only I was as proactive and busy as your dad :)
Just know that we can't wait to cuddle you, little bundle.
With all the love in the Universe,
Mom

Week 25 Day 5
My dearest daughter,
So much I wonder how you will be and what you will look like. I fantasize about whose lips you'll have and pray you'll have my big, almond shaped eyes. They'll view this world with the innocence few can filter. You'll likely have straight dark hair, just like us, mom and dad. They used to tell me I walk like my dad, your abuelo. Dad says I talk like my mom, your abuela. But you, you will carry all of us in you.
There are these magical bits living inside of us that we call genes. They've been around since as long as our families have existed and each one of us carries a different code. Our codes go way back since our lineages started, way on the other side of the world. Who knows what our ancestors were like, right? Well, maybe you'll be a little bit like your dad's great-great grandmother... and we may not even know what she was like. But perhaps you'll spark something different and bisabuela Lela will catch on.
You see Hailey, you will remind us of all that's come before you. As your mom and dad, presently alive, we'll witness our past through you; our tiny future. So much of our family history lays within you-- it amazes me.
We adore you and grow more anxious with each passing day. We are so grateful to have been blessed with you in our lives. Dad and I can't wait to meet you, little Pepper.
Love Always,
Mom
