Baby Bennett

Dear Son,

Today we picked up your furniture for your bedroom.  It took a lot of help to get it from the store to your room.  Your dad, your grandpa Bennett, your uncle Scott, and uncle Jon helped me out.  It was so wonderful to get everyone’s help carrying the huge boxes.  Dad and I spent all afternoon setting up the crib and the rest of the furniture.  Your crib took about an hour and a half to get all set up and then the rest was so easy.  I still need to get some decorations for the room and get it all ready for you.  Your bedroom sure is looking great though.  I took a nap in your room tonight.  I just sat in the chair and couldn’t stop thinking about you, and then I just fell asleep.  I have been sitting in that chair all night.  I just love you so much and I bet I will be spending the next three months sitting in that room, waiting for you! 

Yesterday was Christmas and I wish you were here for it.  Your Grandma and Grandpa Richards bought you so much clothes and I can hardly wait to dress you in them.  Your Grandma bought you this cute bodysuit that says, “Property of Mom FOREVER!”  When I saw it I almost started crying.  I just want to hold you so bad and take care of you.  Christmas was so great!  I am using my Christmas money to get a video camera so that we can take lots of fun videos of you.  That will be so fun.  Your Daddy bought 2 suits for church with his money and they look so nice.  We really wish you were here with us for Christmas!  Next year you will though and you will be 9 months old.  Oh I can hardly wait! 

I love you!

Love, Mommy
