A standardized wheel calculator told us that today was going to be your birthday. And well, it has come & gone--but we still wanted to let you know what your family was doing on this delightful day anyway. Just to let you know what you missed out on! Everyone is really excited to meet you & a little bummed when you decided to stay in my belly for a little while longer. Perhaps, it's the crazy cold we've experienced or the fact that Papa has some really important tests to take tomorrow or that a wheel calculator just gives an average. Either way, this is what we did...
First off, Mama woke up to find that it snowed today! And, lovely child, the last time it snowed here, Mama was in elementary school. It was really exciting to see snow-covered hills & Gma even has pictures of snow from her YARD!
So, as you can tell, it's been unusually cold around here. Grandma Judy & Mama went for a long walk this morning with the doggies to try to help you come out. Then went over to Grandma Diane's for some card-making craft time with the ladies--they are a hoot! Mama got the rest of her envelopes ready to send out announcements of your impending birth.
All the while, Papa was hard at work! Mama also did some other stuff like cook dinner & do some laundry.

And since it is also Gma's birthday today, Mama & some girlfriends celebrated by going to a dinner & concert!!
It was really fun and Mama loved the Christmas music! This was actually your 4th concert since being in Mama's belly. Papa & Mama already think that you'll like music a lot because you move around so much in Mama's belly! Now, Papa is working hard on studying for those important tests he'll take tomorrow.
So, although we really can't wait to meet you, it was very considerate of you to wait until Papa finishes. But, please hurry on out! We're all awaiting your arrival!
From the Depths of Our Hearts,
Papa & Mama

You look so much like your mom! haha Anywho, I can't wait for the news that he or she has arrived! Good luck!
glad you are still feeling good!!! i wonder if the later due date you guys were given in the beginning may have been the correct one after all?
are you guys gunna be mama and papa instead of mom and dad or mommy and daddy or whatnot? :)
p.s. is that the cornerstone womens christmas dinner?! i didnt know your mom went to cornerstone!
I love this post! Made me cry... and long for these days again. Someday.
Excited for you!!
T- yup, Mama & Papa it is! :) And I'm guessing on later one too. It's the midwife's own formula that they're "trying" out so we'll see. And it is Cornerstone! My mom doesn't go there, but we went to the Point of Grace Concert in honor of her birthday! It was really cool! I guess they do this woman's thing every year?!
S- Thank you!!! :D
yeah they do! its a fun night, i went last year.
Jess..you are such a good writer...this is precious. But I do not like that photo....after workout.
Well I was planning on making you something once he or she is born. and I do have lots of girly fabric! hehe
Sweet letter to the little one! I can't believe you're still so positive after your due date - I admire you!! I was at the Women's dinner last night too!! : )
Awww so precious! Baby S is simply being considerate of papa and his tests...and didn't want to steal Gma's birthday thunder. ;) (Hope the tests went well today Wills.) But now that they're done, come on out Baby S, we can't wait to meet you!
