Welcome to the life of Jim and Amber! I've followed blogs here and there, and thought it would be neat to share some of my life experiences with the world. So read along and laugh, cry, giggle, criticize with or at me!

Daddy's Home

It's the neatest, unexplainable, most amazing feeling in the world to feel the movement of your unborn baby.  My little guy used to move constantly, punching me, kicking me, and doing somersaults in my belly.  Now that I have five weeks to go, his movement has slowed down quite a bit because he really doesn't have much room to stretch or play.  What I have noticed is that when Jim comes home and sits beside me, our little guy goes crazy.  Evidently, he loves his daddy!  Even at night when I snuggle up to Jim or when Jim puts his hand on my belly, the little guy goes insane with his wiggling and squirming.  I can't quite figure it out yet, but I'm elated that the two of them have already formed a bond before he gets here.  I have to admit, I'm a little jealous that he doesn't show out for me, but will show out for his daddy.  Boys will be boys!

  1. BUT...you have your own special bond. You're the one that is carrying him for 9 months. You get to feel his movements all the time. Owen loves his daddy and when Tim isn't around, he always asks where he is. But, Owen is definitely a mama's boy. Boys will be boys, but who do you think they come to when they get those boo boos and don't feel good. Who do they come to when they just want to cuddle? MAMA!!

  2. Sometimes, even after they're all grown up, they still want their mama......... Enjoy those precious moments, hours, days, weeks, months, years, 'cause they're gone all too soon!
