Her Little Face

Finally, we have a clear 3D ultrasound picture! Actually, two...she looks so cute! Mom and Dad said she has the same nose I had when I was a baby (she'll grow into it before she gets here!). I was really surprised because she doesn't look like either Kevin or me (yet, anyway!)...she's her own little person.





We can't wait for you to get here, Hadley!
PS: Mom's thinking of having two middle names...Anna (in honor of my paternal grandma) and Joy. She likes "Hadley AnnaJoy" but I think it would be better with two words instead of morphed into one. What do you think?

6 Months

I'm fresh from feeling Mom's hard-as-a-rock tummy...Hadley is now kicking a lot, which is reassuring since she was worrying Mom that something was wrong.

Her little personality is already developing...she hates it when Mom even slightly lays on her front in bed, she loves (and kicks generously) when Mom eats chocolate and fruits, and most of the time when I come over to feel her kicking, she stops, like she knows I'm there and she's pranking me!

Wednesday marked the first day of Mom's sixth month...not long now! But it really does feel that way. We keep saying we'll start moving me out and renovating her soon-to-be nursery, but we haven't yet.

Also we ordered this amazing bassinet...as soon as I saw it in the catalog, I fell in love with it. It's covered with a delicate white, pleated skirt with a tulle layer underneath, with a light pink ribbon tied around the front. It's completely perfect.
I told Mom, "We HAVE to get it." and she replied, "For Hadley or for you?" She knows I want it for my kids (assuming they'll be girls) when I get to that time.

We also found out that a dear mystery friend (you guys can't know yet) is pregnant too! Congrats!

Let's all go buy onesies in celebration (like Hadley needs any more....)
