Belly news!!! (it's a bumpdate...)

So today we got to see a 4D ultrasound of our little man. It was....breathtaking. You can feel them inside you all the time, but to actually get to view him in action was an awesome moment. Just to see how he is doing and what he is up to...also identifying those kicks vs punches. I am just so amazed at the whole process of pregnancy. It really is beautiful. Sometimes it can feel like the worst thing ever, and then a day like today comes along and you are waken to the fact that you are creating new life inside. That, alone, is awesome.

Snow and Tamales

So yesterday, my son had a snow day, I got stuck home with him ( sad huh ) due to no care. We did end up having a fun day. He shoveled the driveway and the walkway.  And I kindly rewarded him with hot chocolate... Because that's what awesome moms do. I also took the day to make some delicious tamales, I have really been wanting some and this snow day was the perfect chance!!!

Bump News!

The bump at 29 weeks. He kicks alot more now, which is good ...Sometimes I need a break though, and the kicking super hard at 5am isn't always the best way to wake up. The good part is that I will be delivering him soon, and then I get to meet this cute little belly tenant that has been growing inside for a while. The wierd part about pregnancy, is that your belly kind of sneaks up on you. Of course its not a total surprise, but it kind of catches you off guard when you are maneuvering around your tiny cubicle and realize how little space you have.....or, when you see a side view of yourself in a photo (see above)... One day it seems it can't get any bigger, and then.......VOILA, it so does....
