My New Favorite Pasttime

Today I realized that I can watch my stomach and see the baby move! Every once in a while, I can see a little bump move for just a second as the baby kicks or moves. It's absolutely fabulous! I don't get to see Baby Rakes very often (only twice now), and to be able to imagine a little baby making all that commotion in my belly makes me just so happy. It's comforting to know everything is okay for the time being with Baby Rakes.

On December 4th at 9 AM, I will have the ultrasound in which they will determine Baby Rakes's gender! We'll also get a DVD of the ultrasound "movie" and measurements will be taken of the baby to make sure it's developing normally. Maybe "normally" is a bad choice of words--Sam and I are this kid's parents, so surely it won't be too normal. =) Anyways, rest assured that this blog will be my first stop after the appointment to let everyone out there know everything we find out. Be sure to check here on the afternoon of December 4th!

Let the countdown begin: 12 days till we find out if Baby Rakes is a boy or a girl! (Just so you all know and can take bets ahead of time, I'm convinced that it's a girl, and Sam desperately wants a boy.)

Stay tuned for more updates on this first-time mother and father and their kiccking-like-crazy kid!
