Feeling huge



So far this is definitely the best part of the pregnancy. Caelen moves all the time and about 5 other people have felt her or even seen her kicking around in her little home. She has a favorite position and a favorite place to kick me, it's so fun to feel like I'm getting to know her already. Feeling her moving everyday and respoding to our touches and voices makes everything (all the throwing up) way worth it.

Yesterday she was really going to town and she stuck her foot WAY out and I poked it and she sucked it back in. I felt like I actually touched her! It was very cool.

The third trimester is almost here and so of course I'm feeling pretty big. I know I'm no where near what I'm gonna be, but my stomach feels squished, my back hurts at the end of the day, and the belly just feels enormous. I wish I could take it off, set it on the couch next to me for a little bit and then put it back on when I was ready! LOL But overall I guess I can't complain much, I feel pretty good, alot of people are telling me I look good, and my hubby still tells me I'm beautiful everyday, so I'm pretty happy. :)

Our days pretty much consist of working, and then coming home eating dinner and watching 24 on DVD. My parents have been going through the seasons and they let us watch them when they're done. It sucks you in and you become obsessed with it, it's absolutely the best show ever. We never want to stop and go to bed, but we know we have to! On the weekends we're still working on the master bathroom and bedroom. But hopefully we'll have it done soon. I really want to start getting Caelen's room all ready. She already has a good collection of clothes, but the problem with little babies is they outgrown stuff so fast, you have to buy a few sizes in advance. So it looks like a lot but it's a collection of sizes to fit through the whole year.

Anyway I can't believe we only have about 3 1/2 months left to go. She's about a foot long and 1 1/2 lbs. Time sure flies!! Before you know it she'll be here and it'll be Christmas :)
