Dear Sweet Baby Boy,

Yay, we made it half way! Now 20 more weeks to go and you are growing fast. The size of a cantaloupe, the length of a banana, what more could we ask for at this time. You are practicing swallowing, which is really good for that digestive system and fine hair is starting to grow on your scalp.
Mommy and Daddy are so happy that you are doing well after our little scare last Friday. It was very nerve racking having to race to the doctors office after the nurse practitioner scared mommy when I asked her if it was okay that I had not felt you moving for two days. But since we're still early on Dr. Doyle reassured us that all was well by letting us listen to that strong heart beat of yours for a while. No more bad colds and stress for mommy!
Now that we know you are a boy, Mommy and Daddy are noticing little baby boys everywhere. It's very cute! We are also enjoying looking at adorable "boy things". I can't wait to start shopping! I think grandpa already started ;)! We have also been reading to you often, some of our favorites so far are "I Love You, Little One" and "Skippyjon Jones." I think you'll love it, Daddy does all the funny accents really well!
We have another appointment next week, so we'll get to hear you again! In the meantime, keep moving and growing healthy and strong! We love you so very much!

Love,
Mommy and Daddy
