Well, it finally happened. Daisy has started to kick me! Thursday night Chris and I decided to eat some mexican food (I had been avoiding this because it had earlier made me sick). When we got into bed that night I was listening for Daisy with my stethascope (this is a regular practice of mine before bed) and I was conviced I was hearing her heart beat. Don't worry, Chris quickly informed me that I was infact hearing my own heartbeat. (Disclaimer: I had the stethascope really low, below my belly button and to the right, not a normal spot to hear your own heartbeat!) So, Chris and I got a big chuckle out of this one, once I stopped with all the laughing I felt a little kick, and I was like, was that Daisy? Then a few minutes later I felt it again! I was so excited. I had Chris try to feel and guess what she kicked again and her Daddy was able to feel her! It was such a great night. Just a little reminder of the miracle that is going on inside you!
In other news, we ordered a CRIB!!! I feel so much better now that it is on its way! Chris and I had been trying to find a crib for a while now, and nothing was the perfect fit. I had in my mind that I was going to create this super girly room with a canopy bed, fabric hanging from the sides of the canopy, a pink chandelier, etc. etc. Well, the canopy bed was very expensive and as I did more research I think that creating a super girly 'big girl' room will be a much better idea! Thus we are going a whole new direction. Here is the crib we have ordered.
As you can see it is very modern, which we love. Next step we are going to find a dresser that can double as a changing table, look for bedding, and then a rocking chair! I am excited to go this new direction. I just need to start deciding what colors etc. Well, I think that is all from here. Hope to hear from everyone soon.
