26 Weeks

Dear Marti,

My, how you are growing inside me! You are now the size of an eggplant! And you are learning new things every day. Right now you are working on batting your beautiful eyelashes and and developing a healthy immune system. I am feeling you move around all day long, while you dream sweet dreams and flip sweet flips in belly. Your recent attempt to put your foot in my ribs (1) did not go unnoticed and (2) was not very enjoyable for your dear mom. Maybe we could keep your limbs down lower in my belly from now on.

I got my glucola test results back and we are doing great! My blood sugar was just right, which means our pregnancy is still as healthy as we are happy. My iron level is low, which is typical, so I have to start taking iron supplements along with my prenatal vitamins. No big worries!

In other news, I need a vacation, a few quality days spent away from work! Carrying you around all day in my belly and allowing you to use all my important vitamins and minerals is really starting to wear on me. But, have no fear, your dad and I are planning a weekend away next weekend. Hopefully it will be a romantic, relaxing weekend away from our normal life.

I can't wait for your arrival! If you could come out healthy and strong tomorrow, I would love that. But you need to keep plumping up and developing, so I will patiently wait. I love you completely and absolutely.

Love,
Mom
