Noah moves...a WHOLE lot!


Never thought he would move that much. Well, I didn't really think about it before. But now its there...Noah is definitely in shape. It's just so weird to feel him stretch out or turn. Sometimes, it seems like he's even shaking, jumping or just dancing around. He doesn't stop when he's already started, that's the problem! And he LOVES to move while I'm trying to go to sleep (that's super uncomfortable for me). But after all, I do enjoy when he moves...we are developing a good connexion, relation between us. He's only 2 pounds now, but he's already loved so much! I can't imagine how parents love is powerful. Only 86 days to go...

Yep... That is life for us right now. There is a buttload of things that we feel like we still have to do, and time keeps on ticking. We are making a checklist of things that need to be done. Its the final countdown.
