I can feel him!! YEAH!!

Finally, this weekend I was able to feel Conner move! Each day I feel him a little more and more, reminding me that he's still there! He seems to be most active at night when I am resting or trying to sleep. But, I read their sleep patterns are usually that they sleep during the day because the activity from your body lulls them to sleep. Then, at night when you get still, they wake up and play. This morning I was able to distinguish his standard soft wiggling from an actual kick. He kicked me twice! I think he was trying to tell me to get up and get out of bed! Well, hopefully soon other people will be able to share the excitement of his movements too!

Baby Conner officially has a room now! Today we moved everything non-baby related out of his room and set up his crib. We fixed his bedding, the valences, and took everything out of bags and put into place. I bet he will love his crib and his Lil' Dino bedding. Our tiny chihuahua Tino loved it! The whole time we were setting things up he stayed in the room with us. As soon as we got the mobile out, he started wagging his tail and got right up in our faces. I'm pretty sure he thought the little stuffed dinosaurs for the mobile were for him. :( The best part was when we put the mobile on the crib and started the music ("Go to Sleep"). When the music started and the dinosaurs started going around, Tino sat straight up and stared at the mobile as if he were hypnotized! He didn't even blink! We are talking about a little dog that has an attention span of about 5 seconds. He looked at that thing for at least a minute without moving. He was probably wondering "Why did they put my toy way up there? How am I supposed to chew those dinosaurs apart when I can't reach them?" Then, as the music slowly wound down, he laid down and let out a big yawn. So, I guess the mobile and the lullaby music works . . . for Tino at least!! Hee hee!

We're still waiting on the changer/dresser, glider, and some other stuff. But, when we get his room fixed, I will be sure to put some pictures up!

That's all for now!
