Two Very Special Friends

Dear Conner,

Daddy and I just went out to eat with our two very good friends, Loren & Jessica Frick. They are so much fun to be with. They have given us a lot of support and wisdom. Your daddy and I decided that we want to ask them to be your godparents. Guess what? They said yes! It is a special role. Being a godparent is being involved with your life, giving you wisdom, guiding you in the right path, or even sending you a birthday card if they cant make it to your party. I wanted you to know who they are. They are a very good couple to learn from about Deaf culture since they both are Deaf. You will have lots of fun getting to know them. They were going to have a little girl not much older than you are. Sadly, she died of a still-birth just a few weeks ago. Her name is Colleen Faye Frick. She was named after her grandmothers. What is cool is that your name was already picked out before we knew about her names. Your name sounded a lot like her name. They even are named after your grandparents. I hope that every time you see a butterfly, you will think of all the little angels in heaven, especially Colleen Faye. She is very special little one =)

Our Pets Just knows!

Dear Conner,
I'm pretty sure that our pets, Lyla & Fat Albert (our puppy & kitty), know that you are growing in my belly. Especially our kitty. He is a gray little fur ball that likes to sit on my ever-growing belly. He likes to purr and make you move around. I thought that was pretty cool because he never had done that before! Lyla would push her nose against my belly and realized that you're inside me. I hope that they will like you, and that you will like them. You probably would pull Lyla's ear but she will protect you from danger. You probably will tease the cat but he will still purr you to sleep. Their unconditional love is something you that will grow to love. =)

Love mommy

Ballet Shoes or Football Cleats?

Dear baby (a.k.a. Conner),

Your daddy and I went to the doctor for my check-up to see how you were doing. We were so excited about this day because we were going to find out if you would be a boy or a girl. Daddy and I both think that you will be a boy but we will be blessed either way. When the doctor started the ultrasound, we all knew right away that you are a BOY! It put a big smile on my face! I tried so hard not to laugh because you are not shy at 16 weeks. Mimi & Uncle Zach were there too and yes they are very excited!! We called Great-Grandma Conner, Grandma & Grandpa Green, andGrandpaw Vance, along with all of your aunts and uncles to tell the good news. Daddy and I announced that your name will be Conner Vance Green. Named after your grandparents. They are so thrilled that you're a boy! God made you just the way He wants you to be. You are fearfully & wonderfully made. I love you my lil' bug!



Love mommy!

You Moved In Me!

Dear baby,
Oh my stars! I got to feel you move in my belly for the very first time! At first, I was not sure that it was real because you were only 16 weeks along. Usually, mommies can feel the baby move at 20 weeks. But in my heart I knew that it was you! It was so weird to feel that. It took me awhile to get used to you moving around. I imagined you swimming around and having fun in my belly. haha! You know what Conner? The first time I felt you move, I knew you were for real! God has chosen you to be my lil' bug. Isn't that cool? =)

Love your,
A surprised but very exciting mommy-to-be
