Flutter, flutter.........punch!

Okay, I know it has been a while so I have a lot to say!!! But first I have to tell everyone about last night. So Joe and I were sitting on the couch watching TV and all night I had been feeling these little flutters in my tummy. So there I was minding my own business and all of a sudden I felt a punch or a kick!!!!! It was the first time I have really felt the baby "kick"!!! I was so excited and surprised that Joe looked at me and asked, "Whats the matter?" Then he reached over to touch my tummy, but of course it didn't happen again. I have to say I was a little worried because I hadn't really felt much. But then at work today I felt it a bunch more times! So now I know the baby is really in there!!!!

I had a Dr appt on Dec 3 which was a week after my ultrasound. He said that the ultrasound looked good and that my placenta is in the front which is why I haven't really felt anything. It is acting like a sponge so when the baby kicks it just absorbs it and I don't feel it. He also said that at my next appt we can do another ultrasound and take a peek to see if we can find out what it is. That appt will be on Dec 31 so I am praying that the baby will cooperate and we will be able to know if we are having a boy or a girl. We for sure have a girl name picked out-but no middle name and we have come up with some boy ones we like too. I am anxious to get started on the babies room and have it actually look like we are expecting someone!!!!

We stopped in at Babies R Us on Friday because we were early for a movie and looked at cribs, strollers, car seats, pack n plays, etc. It was so much fun!!!!!! It still seems a little unreal that our house is going to be full of baby stuff soon!!!!! Hopefully in January I will be able to register for everything that we want/need! I know it will be overwhelming but I am looking forward to it!!!!

Other than that we have been getting ready for Christmas. Joe is enjoying his new position in Comcast working in Business Support. He is back to M-F 9am-6pm so we are enjoying having our Saturdays to sleep in and hang out!!! Roxy still thinks she should go for a walk everyday even if it is only 5 degrees outside. We are trying the best we can to accommodate that but sometimes it is just too stinkin cold out :) But she seems to still love us!! So life is good at the Reinwand's house!!!! We will definitely let everyone know what we find out on the 31st!!! Keep your fingers crossed........................................
