There's a Human in There!!

Yes, there's human within Jen's belly.

I don't think people realize how very strange that is. It is the miracle of life, of course, but it's still very surreal.  Our munchkin is now kicking and pushing his way around in there, and even I can begin to feel it.  It's so strange being on the other side of the belly, feeling him from the outside only.  Of course when he's kicking Jen lets me know, however by the time my hand whips over there he's usually back to sleeping!  I won't let it go, though, the little stinker.  But poor Jen, her belly is no longer a part of her, it's this water noodle thingy filled with a lump that you can push around...and sometimes it pushes back.

It's just odd to think I'm out here poking a mini human... and he may punish me when he comes out! "Hey mom, thanks for squishing me in utero, it's pay back time; I ain't sleeping at night!"

Last night I had my head on her stomach by her belly button, and my hand on her lower stomach.. So, I could smoooosh him with my head and feel almost his entire body with my hand. It was so strange!! And I bet he was NOT happy.  He pushed back several times. But hey, he better get used to me telling him what to do! I talk to him and tell he he better kick when I'm around or else! This may be foreshadowing... he doesn't listen often. GULP.

We are almost 23 weeks, and still waiting for Jen's belly to POP.  Although once it does I'm sure Jen won't be too thrilled.

We are plugging away on the nursery, and I will post pictures as soon as I finish many projects! :)

Get in my belly!!!!

Here we are, a little over 5 months pregnant! Jen is hardly showing at all, but we know he's in there by his little bitty kicks, mostly at night!

We will post more pictures as he begins to show himself more and more!

Stay Tuned!!
