21 Weeks

First, let me start of with a PSA. That's public service announcement for those of you who aren't big on message boards. Anyway, when you're pregnant and eat too much Chinese food don't try to eat your daily dose of dried prunes until you've given your stomach substantial time to digest. Kenny was not terribly thrilled when I announced that I threw up, yet again, in the bathroom sink. I don't know what my aversion to the toilet is.

The baby has been on the move. I woke up on Saturday morning and could see him kicking me about two inches under my belly button. Until that time he was much lower, somewhere in the vicinity of my bladder which he frequently uses as a punching bag. He seems to have settled back down again over the last two days though so his venture into the higher regions of the womb was short lived. Let's hope he gets adventurous again and moves up for good soon.

Oh! Kenny finally felt him kick a few times last night. Very exciting!! It's fun that I get to feel him all the time, like we have a secret little club, but I'm glad Kenny was able to feel it too. It sort of solidifies the fact that there's a mobile creature shacking up in there, a fun litle fact that Kenny likes to remind me of on a very frequent basis. As if I can forget!

Today on the way home from work, the baby and I were enjoying the soundtrack from Les Mis. I was singing away at the top of my lungs and he was rolling around like crazy in there. I'm going to assume he was enjoying it and not trying to get away from all the noise. You're going to assume that too. When we're in the car I make sure to let him know which music "we" like. No sports radio or heavy metal like Daddy listens to. Yesterday morning was especially exciting because we heard Bon Jovi's "Pour Some Sugar on Me" and Pat Benatar's "We Belong." We LOVE those songs!!

We went to Buy Buy Baby on Sunday to start a registry. What an overwhelming experience. Too. Much. Stuff. I think we registered for about 5 things before I was too cranky to continue. We can do the bulk of it online though, so that makes it easier. Sort of.
