Evelyn Marie, you are a karate kid for sure. You spend most of your waking hours kicking, punching and what feels like grabbing at my insides. I can no longer comfortably lay on my tummy on the floor or bed to study or play with my pets. But thats okay, because I love your little reminders that you're developing inside my body. Its still a crazy feeling and I dont think I'll ever really get used to that. You are pretty active these days and yet, when the matriarchs of our families try to get a feel in, you shy away. I hope you always make such confident decisions over who gets to touch you!
Last night I had a dream that you were born. Luckily maybe, the dream started after the birth and once you were home. I got to wrap you in the mei tai that I have been dying to use. It was blissfully easy and you were nice and calm and didnt cry at all.
I did get to change a diaper in the dream, but the funny part is, it wasnt wet until I started to take it off of you. Then I noticed you were about to go pee so I pushed the diaper back over you and laughed at my luck of not getting peed on.
It was a short dream, but I woke up feeling so excited for the December day when I can hold you in my arms. Daddy and I are both looking forward to your arrival.
I once lamented that you would have a December birthday because I was afraid that being pregnant during the summer would be miserable. But so far, you have managed to stay pretty well tucked in and so I dont think the heat is affecting me as much as I thought it would. Plus, you'll make a pretty cute pumpkin belly if I decide to go the cheesiest route ever for Halloween.
So you just stay where you are and get your grow on and we'll see you when you're ready. :)
