Goodies

Okay, okay, I'm digging this going to be a mom thing. I like that there's a little bean inside of me growing all sorts of stuff. My bean is a little tanner than this photo ;) So, this creation is the size of a pinto bean and my uterus is the size of a grapefruit instead of a fist. Awww so, it's eyelid folds and ears are forming and the tip of it's nose too. Little dude/dudette has elbows and beginnings of fingers and toes. Awww!

Today, I took my baby to the mountains and hung out in nature. We found the perfect spot to camp in. Marcus helped me put up my tent. I'll be hovered by momma trees. I feel protected. We'll (baby and I) return to the camping spot on Wednesday for a retreat.

Today, I put out into the universe that we are manifesting a loving home and I contacted a prevous housing manager and I think things are underway! Hip!Hip! Hooray!

Baby feels happy and less stressed about that...because I do :) I'm currently reading, "The Secret life of the Unborn Child" that one of Marcus' clients gave to him to give to me. (Marcus already read 1/3 of it.) It talks about how aware baby is right now and how my feelings impact baby. It also talked about the importance of my relationship with daddy and making sure baby knows both mommy and daddy's voice. It was the cutest thing the other day to see Marcus talking to my lower belly and singing to it too. Awwww! Cuteness.

Also, I've decided to get a sonogram to see what the sex is. Initially, I was against this and Marcus was for it. However, Chris, my friend from Blue Man Group, talked about how he wanted to learn what the sex was when he was becoming a daddy so he could bond as soon as possible with baby. Ya know, have more of a connection with baby. I want that for Marcus and wee one. So, once all my insurance stuff rolls through and it's near time to be able to identify baby's reproductive organs, I plan to have 1 sonogram.

Tonight, I wrote my dear friend Kelly about all this constipation and farty stuff that is going on. She gave me great advice and was humorous too. I am so darn grateful for her and the mommas that have come before me.

My mom called me today saying that I could shop in her closet for maternity clothes. She said that she is a little big and sometimes buys maternity clothes that fit her. She's so dang cute. I may be needing some clothes soon. I'm also planning on purchasing that maternity band so I can still wear some of my own clothes.

Okay, time for bed and good dreams. Thank you God for the gifts you have blessed me with. ox
