life has been continuing along for craig and i, in the way that life seems to continue along. we've been working during the days, and in our non-work hours we've been attempting to prepare our lives and home for baby. all this busyness seems to have helped time speed by even faster than it had been before. we have officially now passed the halfway mark. this is both exciting, as well as frightening. baby is coming soon!
wiggly seems to be doing well, and growing growing growing. if there was any question left in peoples minds if i was pregnant or simply gaining weight - it has been answered. another of wiggly's new tricks is to (what i suspect) dance around like a wild baby. before, the movements i felt were quite light, little flutters. now, what i am feeling is much more forceful. nothing painful mind you, but i can tell little wiggly is getting stronger, and bigger. i am beginning to suspect our little one has inherited craig's height, as i seem to be getting bumped and poked from all around. i'm enjoying all the dancing, some times more than others however. it seems as though baby is a night owl. for the past two weeks i've been getting woken up by some fierce dancing... usually around 2 or 3 am. this is an improvement over the nights where the dancing occurrs around once an hour, usually happening right as i was starting to fall back to sleep from the last dance fest. while i do love to sleep (and i do REALLY love to sleep) i would rather feel the wiggles than not feel anything. we have had a few discussions about an appropriate bed time and dance hours, but my authority doesn't seem to carry much weight with wiggly. i suppose i should get used to this feeling.
recently we went to the orange county fair. we walked around to most of the exhibits, saw the livestock, and all the lights of the midway. there were quite a few pigmy goats in the livestock area which i really enjoyed, and asked a few times if we could adopt one to our house (the answer was no).
this past weekend we stayed up late and got the latest harry potter book at the midnight release. i am the harry potter fan of the household, but craig is a good sport and went to the book release with me. it was a completely crazy event and i regret not taking my camera for photographic proof of the chaos. we got the book at around 12:30, and once we got home i planned to read one chapter. at 3 am i finally gave into the desire to sleep and put the book down. 2.5 days later and the book, and the series, has been completed for me. i had a sinking suspicion that the longer the book was out, the more chance that the ending would be given away to me. i could either read the ending and spoil the book for myself, or, i could read the book at my own pace and avoid all mention of harry potter. i chose the second - although it was't too hard to get through the book since i enjoy the story.
that's about all for now. wiggly and i are going to attempt to get to sleep soon, as we're feeling a little worn out from last nights dance marathon. take care.
