another fun part of our weekend

I felt Baby Goodwin move this weekend. ( : On Friday night, we spent the night at the Goodwins, and we didn’t have an alarm clock in our bedroom. On Saturday morning, Mike woke up and needed to use the restroom. When he got out of bed, I rolled over onto his side (on my stomach.) When he came back to bed, he let me stay on his side, and he crawled into my side of the bed.

About an hour later, we were done dosing, and Mike decided to get up to see what time it was. As he was walking out the door, I felt a poke on the inside of my stomach (about two or three inches below my belly button.) Now, I usually wake up really slowly, and it takes me a while to really understand what’s going on around me. Not this morning! I was immediately wide awake, and I started smiling really big. I waited to feel it again, and it happened about a dozen more times. When Mike came back into the room, he laid down on the bed and said, “What are you doing?” I turned my head and said, “I think I just felt our baby move.”

He started smiling really big and said, “That’s a great way to start the day!” ( :

It was pretty amazing. Welcome to the world, Baby G!
