Hey sweetheart!

So, I took mummy on a shopping trip, which she very much enjoyed, and bought you lots of new things. Now you have a place to sleep with lots of snuggly toys. Mummy bought all the sensible things like nappies, clothes, a cot, bibs and things like that. I bought you loads of toys so you're welcome in advance. Aunty Mo has also bought you a few toys I'm sure you'll love!

Mummy and I were talking the other day (I know, very rare for us to actually have a conversation) and we were talking about who your God parents will be. Mummy thought you shouldn't have any because me and her will do a great job on our own, which of course we will. I think you'll be very happy with my thoughts though! I was saying that you should. Because then if there's something you need advice on, then you'll be able to tell your god parents. Also, if Mummy and I want some fun (don't interpretate that wrong) then you can have a sleepover with them! So, our decision was (drum role please) Sacha and Mo. We haven't told them yet. I can rely on you not to tell them yet though :)

What name would you like then? I want to name you now, Mummy disagrees though. I bet I'm making her out to sound like a horrible witch! Don't worry, she's the most caring person you'll ever know. You see, Sacha is going through a very hard time. His daughter is not very well. To show that Sacha was going to stick by his daughter, mummy shaved his hair off. At this point, your mum hadn't told me that you were, well, here, there. She was talking to Sacha about it. Not telling his that she was pregnant, but your mummy is worried that she wont be able to look after you. She will, of course. Mummy has had a tough life, I'm sure she or I will inform you about that at a later date. Anyway, whilst talking to Sacha, her confidence suddenly grew and grew. Mummy said "What if you're one of those people who has a child but then discovers they don't have it? Whatever that thing is" With that, Sacha, good old Sacha, replied "Ah, you have it, trust me. You're brutally honest, you never sugar coat anything, nothing seems to scare you. Infact, the more I think about it, the more I think you would make a brilliant parent. A tiny Naylor, wow". And you know what? Sacha is right. You are going to have the best mum in the world. I bet you're wondering how I got mummy to tell me all of that! Well, I didn't. Sacha told me.

I diverse. Anyway. What would be a good name for you? Mummy said nothing Scottish. So how about Jessica? Jess or Jessie for short. Or mummy was saying Freya. Not sure why. That's a nice name don't you think? I'll try and convince her at least to let me name the bump, which is now coming more and more visible!

Thanks by the way, for not kicking. You're doing a great job, hang in there princess

Love always, Daddy
