Squirt tap dances!

We've nicknamed our baby "squirt" since only a squirt would keep their gender a secret during an ultrasound. Last week I began feeling definite movement and its strange and wonderful all at the same time. It feels like a giant fish in a tiny fishbowl--you can feel the baby rolling and moving, but the movements are slow and deliberate--like a giant fish trapped in a small fish bowl. Those first movements are always special for the mom-to-be because only she can feel them. Last night as we settled down to watch our favorite shows (House, 24, & Medium), squirt woke up and began to move. Immediately, I called out to Clarke and told him where to place his hand on my belly...and *tap.* He felt it! He felt squirt! Its such a joy to share those early movements with Clarke and one day soon Brock will be able to feel those kicks too. This is the fun part of pregnancy.
