I've always thought the stork was an unbelievable and dim explanation as to where babies came from. However, since becoming pregnant I could accept that strange tale now as more realistic than the fact that a human is going to pop out of me soon... the concept is just so weird to me that sometimes I'm still in denial that I'm growing our baby and s/he will be here because I will birth it. I have seen the ultrasound photos and I feel the kicks, but it's so surreal that I can't wrap my mind around the fact. I only rationally accept that this will happen because, well, that's the way babies get here. It still just won't sink in.
Speaking of kicks: baby kicks me a lot these days and I think s/he gets the hiccups more often than I have been suspecting as well. Sometimes I'll think s/he's kicking me over and over in the same spot but lately I have begun to think these may be elbows/knees moving as baby hiccups... kind of adorable. S/he will also poke and kick me back when I prod my ever-growing belly or when I play music for him or her.
Shawn has the baby's room all cleared out and it's just about ready for paint! We're going to have a blue nursery like I had when I was a baby. I just love the calm, chill look of blue nurseries and it will coordinate really well with the rug we picked out a few weeks ago. You can check out the visual plans for the baby room on the Pinterest board I have made. It's so cute!
We'll keep you posted!
