The ups and downs

Yesterday was a day of firsts. Some firsts were great and others were . . . well, not so fun. Bob felt the baby kick. We were at school in the middle of the cougar eat and I grabbed his hand. I'm sure we looked silly but it was a fun moment. This baby has been moving around like crazy lately! It feels so funny and I absolutely LOVE it!



The other first was not so great, to say the least. I was joyfully enjoying my slumber, dreaming of a snowcone (most likely) when I shot up in bed writhing in pain. My whole calf was totally cramped! According to Bob I started freaking out which caused him to freak out (he didn't know WHAT was going on). There we were, both half aseelp just freaking out. The worst part was that I knew what needed to be done - I needed to pull my toes back. But I can't reach my toes! So Bob did it for me and the cramp went away.

All these ups and downs! I'll admit, though, I'm still very much enjoying being prego :)

Oh, sad about the cramp! And kind of funny (but totally understandable) that you needed him to pull your toes. :)

That is probably the only part about being pregnant that I miss when I am not is feeling life inside of you. It is such a neat feeling. Now cramps are not any fun. I need to see a pregnant picture, please!

PS Moriah loves the puppy video.

Hooray! Well, for the kicking, not the cramping. But wait till the baby's BIGGER and HUGE and constantly MOVING- you'll swear the baby will do gymnastics. I am SO EXCITED for you!!!!!!!!!! Yay yay yay. P.S. I love that you randomly took a Disneyland vacation. Those are the best.
