It's a jumper...

I had my first ultrasound yesterday... too early to tell what it is of course... but such an amazing experience!! This little one is a total mover! It would push off with both legs... hit the top... and float back down... over and over again! So so funny... Shane and I both decided it must be a boy... because it just couldn't hold still... but then maybe it was girl wanting to dance with its sisters... Or possibly it was just "burning" from those "peppercinis" that I crave and eat by the jarful... (I totally craved those with Tayler too! It's always good to have a craving that nobody else in the house would touch with a ten-foot pole... that means there are never any missing when I go for my daily dose!!) Either way... seeing that perfectly formed little thing was AMAZING!!

Gotta admit... I keep thinking about the fact that there is a two-inch little baby INSIDE of me... jumping around... and yet... I can't even feel it...!!

Even though that is TOTALLY AMAZING and definitely a MIRACLE if you think about it too long... it can kindof freak ya out!! (Although it could be possible that I just read "The Host" not too long ago and that's where those thoughts are coming from!!)

But... speaking of "aliens"... when Kenna was born Tayler and Saige were 6 and 4... we had an ultrasound of Kenna on the fridge... sometimes we would say... she kindof looks like an alien doesn't she (ya know the picture of the face from the front.) Obviously we didn't clarify very well... because poor Tayler and Saige were sure we were having an "alien"... they never told us... but apparently they told all of their friends!! When Kenna was born and they saw her for the first time the first thing that they did was look at each other and say! "SHE'S NOT AN ALIEN!" And they got these huge grins on their faces!! Poor kids didn't want to hurt our feelings by asking us if "we were really having an alien"! They just figured they would love her anyway!!!
