Dearest Alexander;
Today’s (hopefully) the day that I will finally get to meet you, little one!
I have a long day ahead of me, but holding you in my arms for the first time after it will seem like such a great reward at the end.
I have classes from 10-3 today, and during my 2 breaks in-between, I still need to finish a paper, proofread, and print it out, it’s due at 2! I know I know, I’m slacking a bit, but how can I not?! It’s been such a whirlwind week, as I’m sure you know 
Uncle Derek’s daddy is coming up from Boulder today to take us out to dinner at Outback Steakhouse (yummy!), and to hangout with us for a bit. It’s so nice getting to spend time with Derek’s parents on the rare occasions that we get to see them; they’re such nice people! Did I mention that Derek’s mommy made us chocolate chip oatmeal COOKIES, and is sending them up to us?!?! No? Well, they’re gonna be delicious!
Uncle Derek has a midterm today (just like I have my paper), so we’re both a bit stressed, but dinner and cookies for dessert after seems like a good plan for us!
After dinner, I plan on driving down to Denver, to hang out with my mommy and daddy, and to meet you!
Can’t wait Alexander! I love you!
Love,
Aunt Malorie
