Baby Journal

Yesterday we bought a baby book from half priced books. I didn't go there with the intention of buying a baby book, and it's not one that I thought we would buy, but when I saw it I knew we had to have it.

It's a baby journal by one of my favorite children's book authors, Eric Carle. He used the illustrations from his book The Very Hungry Caterpillar. All kids love this book, I love this book, and I'm sure baby will too. Maybe it's the kindergarten teacher coming out of me, but I had to have this journal! Can't wait to start writing in it and filling it up with things.

Friday night baby was very active. I was browsing on the computer and all of a sudden I starting feeling movements! They were rapid and it lasted about 10 seconds. Very exciting and almost strange. My first reaction was to look down at my belly and put my hand on my left side where I felt all the kicks. The kicks felt so strong at first I was sure I would be able to feel it from the outside. I couldn't, but that's OK. I was still amazed at the solid kicks baby gave me. I can't wait until this becomes a daily occurrence for me!

3 more days until we see baby. My how time flies!
