A little flutter (14 weeks, 3 days)

8:31 am CST November 4, 2007
So, I'm completely in love with this thing called a belly band. Basically, it's for mommas who are starting not to be able to fit into their pants but aren't ready to cross the pond to pants with kangaroo pouches (aka maternity clothes; as you can see...I'm in denial about starting to wear them).

Here's how it works. You put this divine invention over top of your pants where you would button or zipper them- and there you go! No buttoning. No zipping. No tying. No velcroing. Nothing! The heavenly little belly band covers it up so people can't see that you're not closing your pants!

When I become President-- everyone gets Belly Bands!

So, for this week-- BIG NEWS! I FELT THE BABY MOVE FOR THE FIRST TIME!!!! It's apparently called "the quickening" when you first feel movements. But that reminds me of the Highlander movies or that chocolate milk drink. So, I like to say I felt it fluttering! I can not even begin to describe how exciting it was to feel that!

And Baby Brooks went to it's first concert last night- Jimmy Buffet! And I definitely think Baby Brooks was swimming around with its fins to the left, fins to the right...

Keep good thoughts for me this week- I have a root canal on Thursday. YUCK! Luckily I can have local anesthesia...but I can't have any medicine afterwards to make the swelling go down.

Did I mention I felt the baby move!?!!?
