>Kick, Kick

>For the past week or so, I have *thought* that I was feeling some little kicks. BUT with Conner driving me crazy keeping me busy, I didn't really have time to sit and focus on whether or not I was in fact feeling something. The past two days or so, it's been clear. This baby is moving! I forgot how cool the kicks are. I can't wait until Josh can feel them. He's already asking how much longer he will have to wait.

In other news, we all have a cold. It's nasty; snotty nose, sore throat, headaches. It's definitely not fun and it's been keeping Conner up (which means I'm up too) at night. Hopefully, it doesn't stick around too long.

>Movin' up

>Lately, Conner has not wanted to sit down to eat. I choose my battles and there are some foods that I don't make him get in his high chair to eat. Maybe it's a bad habit, but I have to get the kid to eat; isn't that the goal? Anyway, today at lunch time he decided that he was NOT getting in that chair with the tray so I pulled the chair up to the table. Brilliant! He LOVED it. He ate his entire PB&J sandwhich, a few cheerios and drank his milk.Then he played with a puzzle. Happy kid, see?

>really, 13w?

>You read that right, 13w is already here. I can't believe how fast this pregnancy is going by. On Friday, I had an ultrasound. I had to take Conner with me...alone. Let me just say that it was not easy at all. I did not get to even see the baby on the screen because I was wrestling with my one year old. Well, not really wrestling but trying to keep him completely entertained while laying (almsot) flat on my back. I did get to see the little bug when the tech gave me the pictures. If I weren't so lazy, I'd go down to the basement and scan them, but I am. Instead of seeing what he/she may look like, you just get to look at my belly. I'm still wearing my regualr jeans and I have gained 0 pounds. Don't ask me how because I really don't know. My belly is definitely bigger though. I think I'll need my maternity clothes in a few weeks, don't you?

>Haircuts

>Today, I took Conner for his first official haircut. I have trimmed the back and around his ears before, but I decided that it needed to be done by someone that actually knows what they are doing. Can I just say that he totally looks like a little boy now and while it's sad, it makes me laugh too. I did give him a dum dum to keep him occupied during the haircut. I think I'm that mom.

>Fun or crazy?

>I want to send out Valentine's Day cards this year and I definitely have a cute little subject to stick on a photo card. Today, I went to Target and bought a great table cloth, some heart shaped suckers and a t-shirt for Conner. I couldn't wait to get home and snap some pictures. Conner had other plans and wanted a nap, so I accepted the break.

After his nap, I gave him the wrapped sucker. He liked that but when I took the wrapper off, he LOVED it. He just drooled all over the place. I was very shocked when I took it away and he didn't have a fit. Now, I just have to design some cards. So, am I crazy or fun? I'd like to think FUN.







and for good measure...12w belly
