Dear Baby (3&4)


Dear Ryker,
Somehow, I never posted your third letter. The one where we’ve known about you for three months. It was written quickly & mommy never clicked publish. So, here it is:
3 full months of knowing about you!
Daddy visits your room all the time. Thinking about how you're going to change our lives. It seems like we're just in a waiting pattern right now. Waiting to see if you're a boy or girl. Waiting to meet you. Just waiting. It's making us both a little antsy.
While we were waiting, we decided to go ahead and register for you. It's so much fun to think about how you're going to use these things! We only picked out the bigger things that will be gender neutral. The rest will be done after we find out what you are.


Now that your third letter has been posted…
Ryker,
It's amazing to believe how much you've taken over in the four short (and also incredibly long) months of knowing about you! We learned this month that you’re a boy. Honestly, we were both shocked. Of course, we’re ecstatic. Your daddy has already begun planning lego play days and I can't wait to have my sweet little mama's boy. We’re constantly talking about what you’ll be like. It’s fun to pass a few hours talking about whether you’ll be a blonde or brunette (for the record, we think you’ll be blonde if you have any hair at all.) or have blue eyes or green (your daddy thinks blue, but I’m not 100% certain). We’ve started really trying to prepare ourselves for you. Your room has been completely cleaned out and everything has been sanitized. There’s still laundry to do, but I’m saving that for when we have more little Ryker clothes. We still feel like our lives are filled with a lot of waiting. But at least now we have things to do to fill this waiting period. Your mommy and daddy are waiting as patiently as possible to meet our wee baby Ryker (which is what your daddy likes to call you.).

Love,Mommy
