While you were in my tummy...

~In the beginning of our journey, I loved to eat waffles. So your daddy and I bought a waffle iron in honor of you and all the fun Saturday mornings, that we will make you waffles as a little girl!


~I loved fresh squeezed orange juice!
~Your daddy and I took lots and lots of long walks.
~You would respond to me with little, gentle kicks when I would rub my belly.
~We thought about you all the time.
~Your daddy would pray over you at night.
~I prayed over you and your spirit.
~We listened to a ton of classical music.
~There was a beautiful baby shower with so much love that was held in your honor! It was lovely! The sweetest ladies came and showered us with gifts for you!
~Big E and Patty came out for a visit in wine country! We were given a bottle of the Wedding Cuvee from our favorite vineyard, Iron Horse-in honor of your coming!
~LaLa came out for your baby shower and to see how you were growing!
~the UPS guy came to our house almost everyday with items for you that we were ordering, lol!

Dreaming of you...

Gabriella, 
We are dreaming of your arrival! Your daddy and I are patiently awaiting your entry. You are due in 15 days! The room is prepared, your bassinet awaits and you precious one, are the song in our hearts. We think of you night and day and dream of what you will look like. I think you already look like your daddy. He is the greatest man I know. He is a servant to all and loves you very much. He starts a new job on Wednesday this week! He is so excited to be able to provide for you, Gabriella! That is one of the desires of his heart! You are our songbird and the spring birds here in California are awaiting your coming. God has a perfect time to bring you into this world, it will be peaceful, safe and full of love. You were conceived in love and will be born in love. We already know you have a peaceful spirit. Your daddy saids, "She is the best baby-just the best baby!" Your name means "God is my Might" and "Daughter of Grace" and that is exactly who and what you are. We love you Gabriella!
