Dear BBL,
Your Daddy and I were so excited to meet you on October 16, 2015. Since then, we have loved watching you grow over the past 10+ months (cue the cliche question-- "where did the time go!?"). You are now a whopping 22+ pounds, but did you know that you were once the size of a sweet pea? Actually, I believe the first food product that you were equated to was a poppy seed. By the time you were born, you were (at least) the size of a watermelon! It was a lot of fun to watch my stomach grow over the course of the 41 weeks you held residency inside, but I am very happy you broke free and are now living your life on the outside. And that I am not currently toting a watermelon around in the summer heat. Now for a walk down memory lane...
