the baby has been moving a lot lately. well, it was probably moving this much but i couldn't feel it. its pretty cool. most night i just want to sit there and do nothing just so i can feel it move.

i had 2 nephews put their ears up to my belly at separate times and they both described the sound as "popping". i think thats such a coincidence bc to me, it FEELS like popping. like popcorn popping or bubbles popping. but i didnt know you could HEAR it popping. most times when someone listens to a belly, they describe it as gurgling, rumbling etc. but both kids described it as popping. interesting.

Ryan said "its popping. its trying to come out!". hes really cute. he also said i got pregnant bc i ate too much haha.

anyway, i cant wait for the baby to really start moving... so other people can feel it. i cant wait for the kids to feel it, i think they will be really freaked out. i love sharing this with them and i love that they are interested and always want to listen to my belly or rub my belly.

anyway, much to catch up on.

at my last sonogram, we got to see baby oh again. the baby is doing well and measuring right on track.

the glowly thing in this picture is the baby's arm bone



heres the brain looking from the top down. if you look closely, you can see all the different brain areas:


spine. reminds me of a dinosaur


hello baby! (the baby definetely has jae's nose)


heres a video of the heart beating. you can see all 4 chambers. wow! (you have to go to about the 30 second mark before she finds the heart)


so what else is there..oh, i have a new hobby... scrapbooking. im horrible at it but i still find it fun. i did a mini scrap book for jae's dad with pictures from his party. this is obviously toned down for him. but i will do one of the pregnancy and for the baby that is more customized.

front of the book:










it can be quite a messy project...so i think i need a scrapbooking room or table station. haha.



lastly, look what jae's mom made us...wow. (this is just folded paper, no glue or anything)
