It was Mommy & Daddy's first Christmas together. We had to go shopping for your siblings. Mommy ran across a toy Panda Bear that made all sorts of cute noises. Played them all, and laughed hysterically because those are the sounds that Mommy makes when she's in a really good, silly, goofy mood. I call Daddy over to see this cute little Panda toy. I press the button to play all of the sounds, and he agreed, sounded like Mommy. So from that night on, Mommy became Panda.
How Daddy got his name? Your siblings heard Daddy make a crazy noise while he stretched and yawned simultaneously and they thought he sounded like a dying Moose. I began to call him Papa Moose, which then became just Moose.
I went on many of Daddy's business trips, and one so happened to be in South Dakota. (where you were made, sorry baby, you weren't made in China like you probably had hoped)
While coming up with names, we thought it were appropriate to name you Dakota. Such a lovely surprise you were. A few days after the event of making you, Mommy flew home to be with the fellow Pandas for her Birthday gathering. On her way home, she began to feel motion sickness on the 2nd plane home. That motion sickness lasted for 1-2 weeks. Mommy, and Daddy figured out it wasn't motion sickness from the plane ride home, it was you building a home in Mommy's tummy for 9 months.
After being pregnant for a bit, we then decided that we should come up with a nick name for you... One of your siblings came up with Mooseda. But little did they know, we already had come up with a name for you... Panoose. Panda, and Moose= Panoose. We thought it was rather cute.
Mommy had some complications with her pregnancy with you. We almost thought we were going to lose you. You were my little miracle baby. :)
Aunt Ashleigh wanted you out so bad so she could have play dates with you, and Cousin Johnny Lee jinxed it with the Preterm Early Labor. Because after he said that, Mommy had to go to the hospital, and you came a couple of days later on May 31st, 6 weeks early, at 34 weeks, and 4 days gestation. Weighing in at 5 lbs, 4 oz. You made it just in time for your party (baby shower)!
I hope this doesn't mean that you're going to grow up too fast on me. You're already going on 3 months, and last time we were at the Doctors you weighed 8 lbs, 1 oz. ...My sweet little baby is growing up. *sniffle, sniffle* I just hope that you stay my sweet little girl forever. I already feel jipt out of my pregnancy! I really enjoyed being pregnant with you. I wish it lasted longer.. but I cannot even imagine having carried you full term. *crosses eyes, and shakes head* I look at you, and still cannot believe that I helped make you. It all feels like a dream. I completely love it. And would absolutely do it all again.
I Love You, Baby Girl!
Love always, Mommy
