We're Getting You A Puppy!

Dear Huckababy,

Hey my sweet little boy! Your mama and I just went to the doctor again earlier this week and we got to see you again. You're getting so big! You were folded up in kind of an awkward position in your mama's belly. I think maybe you're an acrobat :) Guess what?! Your grandpa's dog Sadie had puppies about a month ago and we're going to get you (and me) one! She is a black lab and we're going to name her Banjo. Your mama picked out the name Banjo because we both like The Avett Brothers and bluegrass. Plus your mama has decided to take up learning how to play the banjo...maybe she'll also take up learning how to play that bass she has :) I love you Brandi! <3 I can't wait to watch you play with her! Shoot...I can't wait to play with her! I never had a dog before! I'm excited!



I love you,
Daddy

You're A Boy!

Dear Huckababy,

Your mama and I went to see the doctor on February 14th (Valentine's Day) so that they could take a picture of your mama's tummy to find out if you are a little boy or a little girl. I told your mama that it didn't matter to me whether you were a boy or a girl as long as you were healthy, but between the two of us I secretly wanted you to be a little boy :) I know all about little boys, after all I used to be one :) We're going to name you Oliver Quinn Huckaby and call you Ollie for short. You are my son. I get to teach you how to be a man. A good man. My dad is a good example for me and I will be for you. I will be the best daddy you could ever hope for.

I love you,
Daddy
