a quiet, calm bailey-boo + a not so calm littleone

I just wanted to say thank you for everyone's warm wishes for our little nephew + his surgery :: he seems to be doing just fine now, although we wish we didn't live so far away so we could visit him.

Many things remain unanswered regarding our situation and we're hoping we'll have some clarity soon. This whole thing seems to be taking it's toll on Bailey, too. She really hasn't been herself lately, poor little girl. She has slept under a blanket on the sofa since first thing this morning and won't move, even at the suggestion of a treat or a walk. Normally we have to refer to these things as you-know-what's because if we don't she howls and jumps with such uncontrollable excitement. She just turned three and we've noticed that her face is becoming a little grey so maybe she's just getting older and calmer. A little sooner than we expected, but as long as she is happy + knows how much she is loved, it's okay with us.

Now only if the other little girl in my life would be a little calmer! Its like she's determined to kick my belly button out from the inside...or perhaps the scot in her has decided to take up highland dancing :) She doesn't seem to sleep...ever...and she's getting so strong that her kicks take me by surprise and with such force that they're generally accompanied with a loud 'owwww!!'...but kicking is good, right?

kicking is indeed good! when is your due date? it seems to be all going to quickly!

I'll second the kicking is good! I used to get a little freaked through when in the bath and pregnant and there would be a little foot or hand pushing my tummy out - I hope that makes sense :)

Yes, kicking is definitely good. I used to think my daughter was practising kung-fu in my tummy, it's amazing how something so small can kick with such force!
