Ripples In The Tub!



Emilee has gotten into the habit of taking a bath most nights because it helps with her back pain and it generally helps her relax. Often times I will go in and sit on the edge of the tub and we will talk about whatever went on during our day. Most of the conversations lately have focused on what we need for the house and what new piece of information the mortgage people needed. It amazes me that there are millions of loans processed every year and yet it seems like this is the first time these people have tried to get all of the necessary information together. You would think they had a list or something by now. We also need a new refrigerator, but don't get us started on that subject!

SO the other night I am sitting on the side of the tub and we are having one of our conversations and I see the water ripple like it does when a stone hits a lake. I thought I had dropped something into the tub but then Emilee asked me if I had seen it. Emilee said that Anna Grace was being very active but did not figure we would be able to see such a direct display of her kicking. We watched and watched. Unfortunately the little booger did what she usually does when people are watching; she went dormant!

I do not know how many of you have had the same experience. About once a night Emilee makes me stare at her stomach because she saw something or the baby is kicking her pretty hard, and I get to see.........NOTHING! It is as if she knows someone is watching and she is playing a little game of peek a boo. She does the exact same thing when E has me out my hand on her belly to feel her kick. Kind of like the Twilight movies; a lot of build up and no payoff. Of course Emilee gets to see all of the good stuff because she feels it coming. She even watched Anna Grace kick a pen across her desk at work! Apparently we have a little Amazon in the making.

Thinking of Amazon I need to get some Christmas shopping done.

I am attaching a 3D pic from the ultrasounds we had done Thursday. I hope you guys enjoy!

Stay Safe,

Rob
