time has flown!
hi baby girl, mommy loves you.
time has gone by so FAST since we found out about you.
in only less than 2 months, mommy gets to hold you, and kiss you, and love you forever and ever and ever.
like that hasn't already happened. <3
you have been growing SO much and wiggling and kicking me, it kind of hurts!! i would like it if you stayed out of my ribcage, that isn't very nice!
but i have concluded you take after daddy, hyperactive, ALWAYS moving.
daddys family is in town and mommy doesnt like them and they made her sad tonight.
i think that's why you havent moved too much today. except scootched into my ribs again, but i think you're just trying to get closer to my heart and make me feel better huh?
thought so!
tomorrow we get to see you, tiny baby.
and i am SO ready to see how big you're growing. and filling up my tummy.
we will find out if i get to have you the normal way or the ouchie way.
either way, as long as it gets you out of my belly and into my arms, I'm happy!
it will be just me and daddy in the room tomorrow so you don't have to be a stinker and not cooperate for meanie people!
you don't have to worry, i promise.
i will write you a letter tomorrow and tell you how big you've gotten.
and how close you are to being in the outside world, little tiny baby girl!!!!
love always,
mommy.

new home!
my darling daughter.
daddy and i moved into our new home last week, the home i will be bringing you home too.
you have your very own room, and even bathroom. you're not even here yet!
spoiled little cowgirl, we love you so.
we also found out that we get to see you again!
however, thats not always a good thing. =[
when mommy went to her last class, her doctor told her she had Placenta Previa.
meaning that my placenta, what's holding you, is low. and it could cause blockage of my cervix, meaning, i couldn't have you naturally, i would have to have a Cesarean Section.
that scares mommy a little bit because that's major surgery, and a lot longer in a recovery time.
my heart aches for daddy to be able to be there with me.
but unless you make your appearance a little more than a month early, sadly, he will not be.
daddy leaves on Monday for a 5 week field training ops, and will be away from you and me.
it makes mommy sad, she really does love daddy, and hates being without him!
you have been moving around soo much lately and he just loves feeling you move all around in mommys belly.
you like it best when his bare tummy is pressed against mine and he rocks us.
and when you randomly kick him, or poke him, he pokes you back.
he's already so in love with you baby girl. i know it tears him to pieces knowing he wont be able to be here for us when you're born.
and yes, it's going to be very difficult for mommy on her own.
we know that you're worth it. i just want you to know what all I'll be going through when you enter this crazy world.
and one day when you're older i hope you understand and appreciate what all i had to do.
you are going to be one tough, strong, little girl.
you already are, inside of mommy.
it'll be okay. just know, very very much, that we both love you more than you can ever imagine.
and when daddy comes home, it will be an even more emotional and precious gift for him to hold you for the first time.
love always, mommy.

hi, wiggle worm.
lately miss Lyvia, you have been movin and groovin in my belly. I'm not sure if youre doing cartwheels or play soccer of what. but it sure does feel funny.
and the other night, you kicked daddy in the face when he was trying to hear your heartbeat.
he giggled, he thinks it's funny when you move.
i can honestly say you two make quite a pair.
and he's making quite the change on being a better husband and daddy to you little girl.
you're changing everyones life, and you've only been in my belly for 23 weeks, we havent even met you yet and you're changing our whole worlds.
he's putting us first and thats all he ever thinks about.
he's growing up, you'll learn when youre older that for guys, thats a BIG step and it takes awhile.
but he's beginning to be amazing, and he loves you so so much already.
you got your first Christmas present in the mail today from Aunt Kelly. though we're going to have to give her a clever name, seeing that we all have goofy ones around here.
we have Mimi as your grandma on Mommys side, and Pops and Unk too. Mommy is Bug to your cousins Gracie and Drew, and daddy is occasionally "Guppie" but he's not around too much that they tend to forget. Grandma on Daddys side hasnt chosen a name yet. he suggested MeMaw, but Mommy doesn't like it. she's not redneck enough, hehe. you are known as baby "Lybia" to your cousins, one day they will get it. I guess thats Mommys fault for making it so unique. and if Pops starts calling you Fred, it's because he has trouble saying your name. He suggested me naming you Piper today, which is very silly, but then again he wanted to name Unk Quincy Macquein before he was born. thankfully Mimi said no. So maybe he will nickname you Pip. either way, whatever people decide to nickname you, we all love you already, baby girl.
Mommy and Daddy now get 12 whole days together without him having to go to work, so we're going to work on projects for you since time is beginning to grow short. we've decided your room theme with me cows and cowgirl, since Mommy is Country at heart. i think you're going to love it. just like, I LOVE YOU!
love forever,
Mommy.
P.S. one of my favorite things to do with you is to take a bubble bath. i place my hands on my belly, lay back, and wonder what you're going to grow up to be like. you're already my best friend Lyvi Jean. i can't wait to meet you, and grow with you. you're always going to be my world, little beautiful baby girl.

Lyvia Jean Nelson.
on Wednesday, December 8th, 2010 at 0800, Mommy and Daddy walked into the ultrasound room.
Mommy laid down and they put cold gel on her belly and moved a little wand around to see you.
first the tech found your spin and all your little organs.
your tummy, your bladder, your kidneys, your heartbeat [that was Mommys favorite!]
then the regular lady sat down and turned the screen so i could see a little bit better. you were being a little stinker and kept moving away from what she wanted you to do.
you little wiggle worm.
but then she started showing my all of you. your arms and legs and where your little belly button would be.
and i got to see your nose and lips in a 3D image, i swear they come from daddy.
you and your little upturned nose.
i saw your little bones and they measured your belly and head, youre almost a pound!!!
and right where you should be with growth.
and theeeeeeen, the good part!you sat all daintily in my belly with your knees crossed, but she was sneaky and went underneath you so i got a clear view of your little booty.
and right there, between your crossed legs, guess what!?
NO LITTLE BOY PARTS!!!!
Mommy was sooo happy, you're exactly what she wanted.
i couldnt stop smiling, i have a perfect baby girl in my belly!!!
so today i went to the thrift store and bought you pretty little dresses.
and a stuffed monkey because thats Daddys favorite.
some more bottles that will be better for your tummy when you eat.
and a little mini skateboard Daddy and i are going to fix up for you and make it cutesy, since Daddy use to skate everyday.
of course, it's going to be pink.
and Daddys going to have his hands full with the Queen AND the Princess.
i love you my darling Lyvi.
i can't wait to meet you, hold you, love you forever and ever!!
love always,
mommy.

whatever happens.
my dearest Lyvia or Mikey,
tonight wasnt a good night for mommy and daddy. alot of things are changing way too fast, and the things that really need to change, are not. mommy is really unhappy, and isn't being treated as well as she should be.
no matter what happens, wherever life takes us, as a family or just me and you, please know that whatever happens, i love you. i have loved you since the moment i found out i was carrying you. i love you through thick and thin and you gave me strength. even has a little itty bitty one stil growing in my tummy, you have given me the strength no one ever has been able to give me. you and me, we're the strongest there is baby. whenever i get upset, or scared, or lost and confused, i always hold my belly, i reach out to you. i feel your little wiggles and kicks and i cant help but smile, a little me, growing inside.
this world is a crazy one. there's alot of hurt. I'm going to save you from all that i can until you have to have hurt of your own. i will do all that i can for you baby, from now until the end of time. you will always come first, youre my life. you're the only reason i wake up every morning, just knowing that it's one day closer to seeing your scrunched up little face, i cant wait to meet you.
love, mommy.

18wks; 6 days.
hello little baby, mommy loves you!
only one more week and we are at our halfway point.
but of course thats only if you decide to stay inside mommy that long.
i'm hoping to meet you sooner than that!!
lately i have been able to feel your wiggling around in my belly.
and little tiny kicks.
you made my tummy pop out this past week and daddy and i had to struggle to get mommy into her ball gown, but with a little elastic we made it work.
mommys belly is so cute.
you seem to lke the Marine Corps, little one.
are you going to grow up and be a Marine like mommy was going to be, like daddy is?
he's our hero isn't he?
i played a Marine cadence for you with my earbuds with you in my tummy and you moved around, just like you did during the ball ceremony.
we find out if you're a little girl or a little boy in 2 weeks!!
even though i keep having dreams you're a girl.
mommy and daddy cant wait!!!
