More movement

Hi all. Not a lot going on here, but I thought I'd write a few things down. I have a hard time describing to Keith what everything feels like and I wish he could feel it too. It's more than just tickling in my belly now. It's a lot more pressure and it feels like there's actually something in there rubbing against me. A friend of mine called it a cross between a thud and a muscle twitch, and that's exactly what it feels like. Sometimes it's only once, and other times it stays for a couple of minutes. Usually I feel him/her when I'm sitting down or about to go to bed, or right after I eat. Once in awhile I feel a "ping" type of thing on my bladder. This kid already found my bladder. He/she is going to use my bladder as a soccer ball as he/she gets bigger, I just know it. I try to tell Keith when I feel it. He usually gives me a cute little grin and looks at me like a proud daddy. Now that I don't get nauseous and overwhelmingly tired every day, this is pretty fun!

We're getting closer to our big ultrasound on Dec. 20 to tell us the gender. Only 12 more days!!! I can't wait to start picking out bedroom furniture and buying clothes and toys for this baby.

Both Keith's and my parents and family are extremely excited about the arrival of their grandbaby. He/she is a first grandchild in both of our families, so I'm sure this baby is going to get a TON of attention. Even with my parents living in Green Bay, I'm sure they're going to visit a lot more often then they do now. That'll be nice. Maybe I'll get a nap or two in while they're visiting. =) My sister, Leslie bought us our first baby item. It's a pair of ducky booties and they are so adorable!!!

OK, enough rambling. We hope everyone is staying warm and healthy. Take care.
