Baby It's Cold Outside

Hi Little Landon,

Brrrrr! It sure is cold outside. We've had a very snowy past two weeks, and lots of temperatures dropping to zero degrees or below, and way below with the wind chill. We have to make sure we're very bundled up when we go outside! I don't want you to be a freeze baby, haha.

Today your Auntie Jillian sent me the most awesome text- your baby shower invites! They are so cute. It's a "Baby It's Cold Outside" theme. I can't wait.

"Baby It's Cold Outside" Baby Shower Invite

Mommy has been doing a TON of research for your registry, asking all of my friends and family who are moms for their advice and must-haves. I hope we registered for stuff that will be good for you. More than anything, I just hope we have prepared properly for your safety and well-being. And I can't wait to see everyone at the shower. Even Mommy's friend Rachel is flying in from Baltimore for it! I think that's one of the nicest things about a shower- you get to see family and friends and coworkers all in one place, which is rare. I'm sure you will get lots of belly rubs that day.

Last night, we stayed up for the first half of the first-ever National Championship game for college football. Your big sister, Colie, kept putting her paws on my belly to feel you. It was so cute!

Anyways, Daddy was super excited, as OSU was playing against Oregon, and the Buckeyes won! It was quite an exciting day for Ohio football. And the quarterback was a CMSD graduate (where Mommy works) so that was exciting for us at work today.

If your heart was beating a little harder today, Mommy had to give her first presentation to the CMSD School Board. I usually don't get nervous public speaking, and I think I did okay, I was just rushing to try to stay under the 10-minute time frame the CEO gave me. And, according to all the apps, you would have heard my entire presentation from my belly! Haha. Maybe you'll be good at public speaking someday since you've observed it in the womb. We'll see! :)  One of the many things I would wish for you to be good at in the future.

Well, Little Landon, you are certainly feeling bigger these days. I've got quite a bigger bump than just a week or two ago, and you're moving like crazy. Keep it up- I love it. But more than anything, I love you more than you'll ever know.

Love you,

Mommy xoxo
