five foot seven

I felt taller. Josh thought I was crazy. We measured. I grew a quarter of an inch - I am a true 5'-7". Truth be told for years I've been rounding up from 5'-6 3/4" all these years.

whole lotta love

As I drive home from work, Figglet and I have some time alone together in the car. I blast the music, dance around in my seat and sing to him - just to make him happy (umm - totally turning into my mom here). Today, the B-52's Love Shack came on the radio - shrieking I exclaimed to Figglet "This is mommy's favorite song" - then proceeded to sing along and change the words to "Figglet... Baby Figglet!".

However - no movement.

I switch stations to classic rock - and when "Stairway to Heaven" (oy) comes on - the kid goes nuts. He LOVES classic rock!

Oh, he's too much!
How can I love someone so much that I've never even seen? I just think he's the cutest and funniest child ever - already! Loving Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd - who does he think he is - crazy baby...

Figglet wiggles

You know when you are holding a fish out of water, and their tail is flapping in the palm of your hand - it of feels like that, but inside your belly.

Figglet's most wiggly music

24-weeks

It's been a while since the last blog post:
it's hard to believe that we are already at 24-weeks. According to that web site that emails me weekly, I have 110 days to go!

Figglet is a wiggler, he's most active in the morning when I wake up and after coffee (surprised this is Josh's child - a lover of caffeine in the womb), after I eat fruit, and when I listen to music with a heavy base.

Still craving fruit - just different ones now:


Sunday:
Prenatal yoga

Monday:
Checking out the Temple daycare.
(Already on the waiting list for Vandy, but that could be up to a year!)

Next Monday:
Blood sugar test & midwife appointment

On-going things that just haven't been done:

• signing up for hypnobirthing class
• signing up for Vanderbilt hospital tour and new parent classes
• doula???
  

candy gram

Live from Cedarburg - it's Saturday night!

(pregnant Landshark: 23-weeks, 2-days)

could Figglet be coming early

Might want to put your bets on March 17th
