He's Definitely Got Personality

My little one may not have a name yet (although I'm determined to hold out for Joshua Steve) but he definitely has personality. I don't know what color his hair is or the color of his eyes, but I can already tell that he is just as stubborn as me. For example, he seems to have taken up camp right underneath the right side of my rib cage. Trust me...its as comfortable as it sounds. Occasionally I give him a gentle nudge to see if he'll move to the other side, and the response I get is a not so gentle nudge right back. I already cant tell him what to do:) A bit of a trouble maker like his daddy? Yep! Example 2: when ever I decide it's break time from studying or time for bed and I lay down, he takes that as his cue to have a party in my belly...again... its as fun for me as it sounds. He continuously does somersaults and kicks in every which way, sending pain shooting down my back accompanied with the immediate urge to pee. Know that's what I call relaxation! Once I get back to work, he goes right back to sleep. When your mother says that you will end up with a kid that is just like you, she's not lying. Lets just hope that mine and Devon's moms are right cause if he's like us, he's gonna be a doll...ok...more like a little trouble maker who knows just what smile to flash to get away with it;)

Haha, that is a hilarious rendition of what happens to me every day... The joys of pre-motherhood! How fun that we both get to go through it at the same time. I think it is so funny that research shows that the baby sleeps when you are active- walking around or whatever it rocks and soothes the baby, and then when you decide to be still- ie sleep- the baby wakes up and is ready to move and wiggle around.. Some days I love it and some days I wish it was the other way around so I could get more sleep. But you could look at it as preparing you for all the night you will be awake nursing and everything! YEAH! Hope that everything is going well for you. I hear that your shower is this weekend, let me know if you need anything.. I wish I could be there, have a great time!
