Dear Ailish, 

You are now welcome to make your arrival anytime. I finished your blanket this week and washed all the baby clothes. Just thought maybe you were waiting to be sure you had "something to wear" and keep you warm...... though I know I have yet to have a baby arrive before their due date, there is always a first time, right? As the 5th child, there aren't many "firsts" for you, this would be a nice one for you to claim for your own! You are an active little girl, lots of kicks and wiggles and squirming going on. Alannah is very excited for a baby sister, she talks of you often and is thrilled to be able to now pass along her diapers (since she doesn't need them anymore!) and occasionally mentions you can have her pacis, but I don't know how serious she is about that one! I can't wait to let her met you, it will be fun. So, whenever little girl.... we're ready for you! 

love, Mama
