Oye

My brain is gone. Bubbles and Cookies ate it- or as Bum would say, they are acting as my brain horcruxes (Harry Potter)-- however, I don't think I could get it back from them if I wanted to. That is okay with me. They can use my smarts- I just need to be able to take care of them.

I have become incapable of retaining lists for more than a few seconds at a time. Seriously, if I don't write it down- it is forgotten within a matter of seconds. Just a part of being pregnant I guess.

Lil Mr.Bubbles likes to lay at a diagonal. Not quite transverse, but enough for me to notice. In doing so, he has somehow pinned my sciatic nerve- lovely feeling. This kid is LONG like his sister. He is ALREADY plowing me in the ribs. He doesn't like when I drink ice water, so I get a plow to the stomach when that happens. Makes me laugh. Sorry sweet boy, Mommy isn't going to drink luke warm water for you. He is quieter than Cookies was, but I think that may be because I am busier. I have to remember that they are different kiddos though, and he isn't going to do all the things she did.

Cookies has figured out that there is a baby in my belly. She is convinced if she reaches far enough into my belly button (ouch) that she can get him out. I wish I could capture what she does. She sings "Baby Mine" and pets my stomach. Instead of holding my hand to go to sleep, she wants to have her hand on my belly. Yesterday, she called it a "pillow". She crawled into my lap, lifted my shirt, layed her head down and was fast asleep within minutes. I can't wait to capture that on film.
I am so excited to meet him. I am even more excited to have HER meet him. I am thinking about having her there with us, providing things are going well and Mommy isn't moaning and crying in pain (that would scare her). What a special moment that would be to have her there to hold him with us. We will see what happens.
