My mood while writing this blog: sleepy |
So just yesterday I was prodding my belly to see if I could feel the baby kick. Nothing. So I was sad and concerned that maybe something was wrong. So I decided to get up and get my mind off of it. I made a new recipe for breakfast and we ate at our new table. We have actually had it like a year but it has been in storage until our dining room is done. It's not finished but I am sick of waiting. So we went off to the meeting (like church) and that was good. We had made plans with our friends to come over for dinner and I made a big spread and we ate at the table. I even used our china serveware. It was nice. We had marinated salmon, roasted red potatoes, sweet carrots, creamy rice and salad. We sat and ate for near an hour and that made me happy. We rented a movie (August Rush) and sat down to watch it. I had totally forgotten about the lack of baby movement when the music started up at the begining of the movie. The baby must have heard of felt the music cuz he/she was going crazy. At first I thought it was just muscle twitches but they were irregular and in slightly varying spots. I sat and glowed and really wanted to cry. I didn't want for our guests to be uncomfortable so I controlled myself but it was almost magical. I remember the first time I felt Ben move and I can't say it was quite as meaningful. I made note of it in my journal but I don't recall being so emotional. It could be just the relief that everything was o or just the fact that now I had a new connetion to this otherwise very separate life.
