To my Busy Baby,

My sweet baby!  Busy does not even describe you well :)  I am so very thankful that you are active & growing well.  You have recently found my lungs as well, to go with the bladder & ribs that you like to kick, punch & stretch into :)

During this time you are nearing 17 inches long and still around 3 lbs... you have entered into your "rapid growth stage"!  Which means that you are keeping your momma very full feeling most of the time, due to your growing size in my limited space, but hungry much of the time as well.  Your bones are hardening into place... so I am doing my best to keep the calcium flowing to you!

This week you have traveled back from your first trip to Thailand and celebrated your first Christmas with your Daddy & I in South Asia.  You have done really well & been very kind to me with all of our traveling lately.  Where we were at the beach is a 3 1/2 hr car ride to the airport, then a few hours in the airport, followed by a 3 hr plane ride, then another 1 hr taxi ride before we got to our bed for the evening!  You did great... but wow I was tired!  Then just yesterday we were given a car to drive in South Asia & today your Daddy drove us all the way home from the BigCity, a 4 hr drive!  Hopefully you will always love & be good at traveling Little One, it is just part of our life here!

We love you so very much & can't wait to meet you!  Oh... and in just a couple days you get to attend, via Skype, your first party!  That's right... a party just for you & your cousin Olivia!  We are all very excited!  I will tell you more about it next week :)

Love you, my Busy Baby (who is currently knocking into my ribs :)!
With all my love,
Your Momma
