baby movement

So, yesterday I was laying on the couch reading the most boring book ever written when all of a sudden a certain someone let their presence be known!!!! I swear that if I had been looking at my stomach it would have jumped a couple of inches!!! okay, so probably not, but the movement was so obviously peanut that it made me cry and smile at the same time! That was the first time that I have been for SURE that it was the baby moving around in there! I love it. I have felt movement a couple of times today also. OH... last night I was listening around for a heart beat and everytime I would press down on my belly with the "speaker" i would feel a flutter move away from the pressure. It was cuteness!!!!

btw, the boring book that I'm reading is Cry, The Beloved Country.

looking and feeling preggers!

I saw mom today and she told me that I was looking pregnant! Unfortunately, I am really just FEELING fat!! :) it's okay though! I am still having a hard time believing that I am pregnant so I guess that it will finally hit me when I see you on the ultrasound in a couple of weeks. I hope that we are able to see you before we go to Hawaii. This will be our last big vacation before you arrive so it had better be a good one and you had better be good!! :) Valerie and I think Justin are coming and so is Kathryn who is bringing a friend from work, Toni. So, there should be plenty of people there to motivate us to do something besides stay in the room and just hang out. We were originally going for a romantic holiday / anniversary but I guess that we will have to find moments of romance while everyone else is there too! I'm sure that it will be fun and we will have a blast!

Anyway, I actually was able to make dinner the other night and only felt nauseous when I was cutting up the chicken, so life is improving thankfully!! :) the baby is definately worth all of the "pain and suffering" though, I would okay feeling worse for the pleasure of having a baby!!
