Getting Excited

Hi Baby Boy!

Another appointment, another post. :) You're getting bigger, so your movements are starting to slow, but you're just as strong as ever. It almost seems like you're being intentionally gentle with Mommy, no more kicking the ribs where they're bruised or headbutting. I love feeling you move, though, and kind of miss your bumping and bouncing. Had I not heard your healthy heart beat today, I'd start worrying. Nope. There you are, just a slow, gentle kick, a tiny wave hello. I love you, little bean. I can't wait to meet you.

Today we reached the 8 month milestone! Hooray! We're staying to pack up hospital bags, pre-register at the hospital, and get together our to do lists before things get really close to D-Day. I find out that the hospitals have the nice, inflatable labor tubs and that I'll be able to eat, drink, and walk around until it's time to push. I'm very excited, Bean. We can't wait to be able to greet you our own way, to welcome you into the world by holding you close and giving you lots of kisses.

Love you, Baby Boy! Only about 8 weeks left to go!
