I totally felt the baby

this morning. I was laying flat on my back (still trying to enjoy that while I can) so all the fluff of my stomach was flattened out. I was mushing on my lower abdomen and I totally felt a firm spot. Then the hard spot became squishy. Even though it was such a tiny thing is so nice for me to have those little moments. No matter how many ultrasounds I get or heartbeats I hear it's always much nicer to have those little things that I can feel for myself. It makes it a lot more real for me and helps me to endure.

So I'm 15 weeks! YAY! Only 9 more weeks until the age of viability. I was so excited when I hit that mark with BL. Little did I know, a few days later I went on bedrest. I'm doing everything I can to avoid it this time. Keep your fingers crossed for me. I'll be keeping everything crossed...

We're up in Prescott again for the weekend and I can't wait to show the you great pics I've already gotten this time. This morning I woke up to BL going over to the floor to ceiling black out curtains and going "TIME TO WAKE UP! IT'S THE SUN! THE SUN IS UP! HI SUN! DAD, COME SAY HI TO THE SUN" At least it was better than what I woke up to last time... "Mom, I pee..."

Congrats! I left your cute red bag on your porch this afternoon... hope it was still there when you got home.... although who would steal a primary manual? Well, that bag is so cute, it might disappear and the primary manual could be left on your porch all by it's lonesome!
