New Bedding and More Movement!

Last night I felt Savannah from the outside of my tummy. It was the strangest feeling I have ever had. Each time she begins to kick I will have someone put their hand on my stomach to feel it too, but she ALWAYS stops. Brian is getting a little frustrated. When she starts kicking I will call for him and he runs in and puts his hand on my belly and nothing!

Also, this past weekend my Mom and I went out and found the cutest bedding. My Mom bought us two beautiful pieces of furniture. We decided that a full size crib would just be too big for our little one-bedroom condo. We got a porta-crib and a changing table to match. The wood is a dark espresso. So, try to imagine the lady bugs with the pale pink against the dark wood- it's adorable. The only disappointing part is that porta-cribs have a minimal selection of only ugly bedding, and the lady bug bedding didn't come in porta-crib. So, I bought as much as I could (hamper, diaper holder, mobile, paintings, rug, valance, and drapes). I couldn't get the actual bedding (bumper, fitted sheet or quilted blanket). I figured that I could just buy more drapes and try to make the stuff I couldn't buy... since I don't sew it will be a challenge! The changing table had wicker baskets instead of drawers so I thought I would change out the basket liners with the matching material from extra drapes.

Very very cute bedding. Give her time and you will feel her a lot more on the outside. Its still pretty early for others to feel her. Davis never let John feel him from the outside unless I was spooning him at night and then John would get kicked in the back!

OOh-Ooh! I'll make a ladybug quilt for you! It will be light pink and black, and soft, and I'm so excited to get started!

OH THANK YOU! That will be so cute! The lady bugs on the other stuff is light pink and brown. I saw your blog with your sewing room. Sewing is a talent I wish I had! I am so excited for her to come. I feel like I just can't wait any more. 3 months is a long time!!
