first wedding

and you were in the wedding party! it was auntie karina and uncle randy's beautiful wedding in simi valley.

i mustache you a question!

 

you are a

boy!!

we saw your heart thumping, your hands and feet, your little stomach, and most importantly, your pee pee.

 we couldn't wait to find out, though we had a feeling you'd be following your dad around the house with a tool in your hand instead of cuddling with me on rainy days.

we let the whole world know about you that afternoon.

those flutterings

are your tiny little kicks!

what a delight to finally feel you 'say' "hi mom!".

it'll be our own little secret language. just you and me.

the way you look

took our breath away.

no longer our little peanut, you looked like a tiny little baby.

we saw your face, your heart, and the way you sucked your thumb.

hi!

proudly announcing

you to your future family!

it was your grandmother's 63rd birthday and she was beyond excited.

your great grandmother was there, both sets of your grandparents, your grand aunt and uncle, your aunt, keegan, and your furry big brother. 

everyone was excited.  

love at first sight

we heard your heartbeat for the first time. we could hardly contain our own.

we saw you too for the first time. our little peanut. our fidgety little peanut. 

love. at first sight. 

and you shall be called

booberry.

as small as you are, as abstract as you are, you are our love, hopes, dreams.

can you feel the kisses

your father gives you every night i came home from work this week?

he's already smitten with you even if you're just as big as an apple seed.



p.s. doctor's visit today confirmed that you, are not just our imagination.

and there was you

the first time we knew that our lives will be complete. 

we were so excited. 

we wanted to shout it out to the world. 

but we kept our joy in our hearts. 


p.s. our movie for you - "ted".
