my little acrobat

I swear somedays this kid thinks he's an acrobat!! And thinks that my bladder is his personal trampoline! I LOVE IT! I find myself sitting around with my hand on my tummy *just in case* he starts so I can feel him inside and out. I know I probably look funny like that, many times friends will ask if he's moving, but there's no warning and I don't want to miss it. Unfortunately only a few people have felt him move, and even then only a couple of times. He's a little shy with others apparently. And while I want to share him, it's nice to sometimes have it to myself still. :)

The other day I put Craig's hand on my tummy and my friend saw his hand move when he moved. I didn't realize he was quite that strong yet!! I knew if *felt* strong, but got excited to know that it's starting to be visibly strong too. It's amazing, it was just a few short weeks ago that I even started feeling him.

I'm starting to get more excited about registering and buying things. So far, I've done pretty good about not buying too much, I hate the idea of buying too much and having way more than we need. So somehow I am keeping myself content with doing my research and registering for things.

My first shower is in Arkansas in a month (wow!) and I...can't....wait! I can't wait to SEE people. I so don't care about what I get if anything, we are inviting people that were involved and important to me growing up but haven't necessarily gotten the chance to see/talk to in the last several years. I can't wait to see them and just CELEBRATE this life with them.
