30 weeks, 5 days pregnant
Dear Baby,

I bought your playard yesterday on my lunch break, and couldn’t wait to come home and set it up. It has a bassinet on the top, and that’s where you will sleep when we first bring you home from the hospital.

Daddy was working, but I was determined to put it together myself. It was frustrating, because I couldn’t reach into it very well (on account of you), but I didn’t stop messing around with it until it was standing proudly next to my side of the bed.

I’m sure people think I’m crazy for setting it up — sheets and all! — 65 days before you are scheduled to arrive. But I don’t care.

Last night I went to sleep with one hand resting on the side. I can’t wait until you’re lying there, next to me.

xoxo
