Mover and Shaker

Our little Lucie has been dancing up a storm!  As she grows bigger and stronger everyday, her moves are starting to become bigger and stronger as well.  My whole belly shakes when she wiggles around and I can see her arm or leg move across my belly when she makes a big turn.

James was feeling her move the other day and asked, "Is that you or her?" I replied, "It had better be her otherwise I think I might have a snake in my belly."

We are now officially in our third trimester- hooray!  It's so hard to believe we're 3/4 done baking our baby.  I am very fortunate that it has been such a smooth journey thus far.  It has kind of lulled me into a false sense of security about labor and delivery.  I have this [insane] notion that since everything has been so easy, labor will likely be a walk in the park.  Current Mommies- pick yourselves up from the floor, stop your laughing and please continue to read :)

We have started to take our baby and birthing classes which is exciting and depressing at the same time.  This means that pregnancy is quickly approaching an end and I really have enjoyed it to this point.  James and I both find ourselves saying, "Wow, Lu will be here to do this with us next year!" and we even talked about making a list of "musts" to do before her arrival this summer and neither of us could think of anything [at least not that I can do while pregnant] that we couldn't make work when she arrives.  It's exciting to think of her arrival but I also love our special time together feeling her move and shake in my belly.
