12 Weeks

Dear Baby Batts #2,

Today, you are 12 weeks old in mama’s tummy! This week, your little earlobes have developed, your reflexes are kicking in, and you are already squirming around in my tummy. I can’t quite feel it yet, but you’re the size of a lime and I might be able to soon!

I had today off work, so we went on a family date day in Palmer this afternoon. Dada and I like to get coffee together, so we drove through our favorite coffee stand (and even got a steamed milk for Ruth). We parted the car, bundled up, and walked around a little bit. It was COLD and windy, so we hopped in and out of stores together, too. We didn’t buy anything (we were all spoiled over Christmas!) but had a lot of fun. After a little bit, it got too cold… so we headed to Wasilla. We looked around Value Village for a few minutes before going to dinner. We ate at Mat-Su Family Restaurant (one of our local favorites). It was practically empty so we enjoyed a delicious and very filling meal in a quiet atmosphere.

Family Date Days are one of our favorite traditions. Soon you’ll be bundled up (probably in mama’s carrier) and adventuring with us. Yay!!

Love,

Mama
