I Get a Kick Out of You

Dear Baby,
You are now 15 weeks away from being born, give or take a few days.  Since Sophia and Andrew didn't come early, I expect that you'll take your time making an entrance too.  However, unlike your brother, I hope you don't make your entrance TOO quickly once you decide you are ready.  You are a lot more active now and have been getting some good jabs in.  Your favorite time to kick?  Oh, right around 10:30/11:00 at night.  This is usually when I am climbing into bed and you seem to like it when I am stretched out.  You are big enough now that my stomach moves as you do and this still fascinates me, even though I've experienced it twice before. 

Last night we were shopping for your brother and sister and came across the perfect outfit for you-a navy blue onesie with a train on it and the words "Little Brother."  Perfect that is, if you are a boy.  As much as I wanted to buy it for you, I held off.  It can't be returned three months from now and I figured that if you are a girl, you wouldn't appreciate it nearly as much-even if it does have your brother's favorite mode of transportation on it.

You are now a little over 12 inches long and my belly is pretty big.  It's hard to believe there is room for you to grow another 9 or so inches and gain another 6 pounds.
