So yes, the nursery is finally totally complete...except for some shelves and pictures I want to add and the glider that is on the way, but it's done! The clothes are all washed and hung or folded. The crib sits and awaits our precious little one...it has quickly become the favorite room in the house! If the glider arrives before the baby does I imagine Hubby and I will find ourselves sitting in the chair.
I know...you all wants pics and I don't want to disappoint. I wanted to show a nice progression from drab to flab...so here is a link of a bunch of pics of the beautiful new room
So now that everything is done, we sit and wait. Every little pain I hold my breath and wonder if it's begun. So far it hasn't. I wonder if my water will break or if this little boy is as snug as a bug in a rug and doesn't want to show up just yet!

Finally!
Yep, I am finally feeling Baby move.
Sadly though since he/she is so small Hubby can't feel him/her move...but it doesn't mean he doesn't try. This morning we were up early but decided to linger in bed a while and just cuddle. Hubby gently placed his hand on my ever expanding belly and we waited...and waited and waited. Suddenly I felt movement and excitely opened my eyes and whispered "Did you feel that?" His response was in the negative and we both just sighed. But I know when he finally can feel it, it will be mean some serious pokes, kicks and jabs for me!
I tried explaining what it feels like, as all the preggo sites talk about it feeling like popcorn popping. Which is strange, mostly because I'm not a kernel and don't really know what popcorn popping should feel like! The other description is butterflies in the stomach...this one I can relate to, as I just described the feeling as my heart getting caught in my throat just before a roller coaster takes the first plunge. Only it's the feeling is so fleeting. Yesterday at lunch Baby went crazy and I finally had to pat my belly and tell him/her to at least hold off until AFTER lunch. Talking to the belly is weird but so cool at the same time!
We've played music to the belly and the only song that got movement was something from Phantom of the Opera. What does this mean??
And I know a bunch of you asked...and yes, we will be sharing sex! Only two weeks to go until the truth is known, and I can't wait. For that matter, neither can Hubby!
