Progression

The following is a series of pictures of my beautiful wife as the baby has grown and developed (yey!):






It's really been a pretty cool journey so far. The baby has gotten big enough to where I can feel it on a regular basis, and (for the most part), the Little Kitty hasn't really felt sick. She's getting to the feeling uncomfortable stage (especially sleeping), but that's to be expected. I really want the baby to get here so that I can meet him for myself. Can't believe I have to wait all the way till December (though it will be here before I know it, I'm sure).

Pretty neat trip, this pregancy thing.

Tremors!


It would appear that the Little Monster growing the the Kitty's belly has already decided to start using some of the traits it's gotten from me. He won't stay still when you want him to.

Now, those who know me know that this is one of my issues. I don't sit still. At the very least I'm constantly shaking a foot, and often and entire leg. Has something to do with my ADHD I think, but either way, that's the case.

At a doctor appointment a couple weeks ago, the Little Monster was so active that they couldn't get a good ultrasound reading for a while. Yesterday, he decided it would be fun to constantly kick while they tried out listening to his heartbeat again.

This isn't to say that it's a bad thing. I think it's hilarious that he's already got a problem sitting still when you want him to. It's the little things like that which makes him a little more human and a little less monster I guess.

On another note, we got our baby furniture (thanks Bran and James!). We now have a crib and a changing table and a little armoir, all of which has barely been used at all. Turns out the baby now has nicer stuff than most of what we do. I hear that this will become the norm, but that's fine. I like our comfortable furniture myself. :-)

Well, that's about it for this morning's post. I'm still on my sleep schedule, and it's going well. I moved up my core sleep from 3 hours to 4.5 hours, and now take 2 naps during the day instead of 3. It has been working much better and I haven't accidentally fallen asleep a single time since, woo!

Sleep Experiment - Day 6

Well, it finally happened. I fell asleep after I woke up for almost 4 hours. First time it's happened, but still kind of a bummer. Anyways, there's not a whole lot else going on at the moment. Gotta get ready for work in about an hour. Have a good day all!
