Our growing boy

My belly is getting large enough now that people aren't afraid to ask when I'm due. It's great to feel him kick around and sometimes I'll tell Brandon that he is kicking like crazy and Brandon always says, "He wants to come out now! He's ready!" to which I respond " absolutely not! He has to grow more." And Brandon says something like "okay, he'll wait. But he's really excited to come out." We have our first prenatal class tonight, so we can realize even more how little we know about this whole birthing thing.

Don't worry about how little you feel like you know now. When it comes right down to it, you're going to feel like you know even less when you get in the moment. And then it's all over and it didn't really matter anyways cuz you made it through just fine. :)

That is so awesome. It is the best feeling in the world to feel those little ones moving around. I didn't believe people when they told me I'd miss it, but I kind of do. We are so excited for you guys. When are we going to go out? I don't think we can leave it up to the boys any longer.

Good luck at the birthing class. We didn't go to one, maybe that's why we know so little about parenting, etc.

You ran a half marathon without training, I'm sure you can handle birth, no problem.

Yay for prenatal classes! Do you have to watch those scary movies about childbirth?

Just Katy said...

You should watch the movie Tristram Shandy. Best birth movie EVEERRR.
