This is what I've been calling the baby's movements lately. Jacob thinks it's embarrassingly bad. But it's so fitting because this baby is in constant motion. I don't think anyone really believes me. Constant. Motion. And he gets the hiccups all the time, too. It's cute and wonderful and amazing and miraculous, but it can be weird at times, too. Especially when I'm just sitting here minding my own business and a freakin' knee glides across my middle. "Hi! Baby in here!" Weeeeird.
When the OB was doing my belly check on Monday (29-week appointment) she had to keep moving the doppler from side to side to pick up his heartbeat. And she heard and commented on the hiccups, too. Sweet validation. The ultrasound tech also struggled with him holding still long enough for her even to snap a picture for measurements. What a turkey!
Y'all say a prayer for us that while he's not resting (or letting me rest) in the womb, he'll be a mellow, docile, sweet sleep-loving baby once he's born!
Almost forgot! The OB also said he's measuring to be closer to Freddie's birth weight (a hearty 9.2 lbs!!!) than Sammy's (a mere 6.2). She basicially told me to expect another 9-pounder. Yeehaw.

It's fun to be on this pregnancy journey with you! My little one is a mover, too. I will pray for both of us. :)
Thanks for your sweet comments and encouragement on our blog. We enjoy your a lot, too, I'm just bad about commenting.
We haven't thought too seriously about names yet; I keep teasing Shae about Indian names but he's not interested. Sultan? Krishnan? Laxmi? :) I like your picks!
Can't believe how big your boys are these days! Wow.
And kudos to us on our big boys (and birthing hips?)!
Love to you,
Lisa
