To my baby

Dear little lemon,

You're not quite a lemon yet but on Saturday you'll get there. I wanted to let you know just how much your daddy loves us.(aka a LOT) From day one your dad has been super supportive of us. While I was breaking down in tears and freaking out about how we were going to provide for you , he was much calmer and quieter about his freaking out. He got online and looked at all the options we had to get as much help as possible. Then he told me that this was exciting and that he was happy.

Since then it's only gotten better. He's been great at doing the dishes and cleaning the house. When the bathroom got backed up and smelly he helped keep it as clean as possible. When I've thrown up he's rubbed my back and after I'm done he'll cuddle me and tell me how sorry he is that I don't feel good. He'll then take my bucket empty it out and bring me water. Now that I've gotten to a point where I can't keep any liquids besides sprite down he's gone out and bought me TONS of juices like vitamin water and powerade so we can try and get some form of a decent liquid to stay down so I don't dehydrate.

He's made it a point to try and come to every single appointment and when he can't come he gets really upset.  He was pretty chill and relaxed about you until he had a dream about you. He didn't know what gender you were or anything , but apparently we were in the hospital and you were just about to arrive when he woke up.  He woke me up at that point all excited and told me about his dream and how excited he was to get to meet you. Occasionally he will put his hand on my stomach and tell both of us how much he loves you. He does this a lot before we go to sleep. He always talks about it though. You'll frequently hear him saying " I love baby."

I guess what I'm trying to get at is that he loves us . He doesn't show how excited he is about things openly very often so the fact that he's openly excited shows me exactly how excited he is about you and how much he loves you. He loves you a whole bunch. You should always remember that.
       
         Love Mommy.
