What is that....Popcorn? A teeny tiny drum? A fish??

It's me finally feeling Baby B moving/kicking/swimming in my belly!!!  :)  :)  :)

For the past week or so, I've been laying flat every night before bed and trying so hard to feel any movement from the baby...but, no real luck other than a bunch of gas bubbles.  But, there was no mistaking what I was feeling today!!  It felt like little taps/pops in my lower abdomen, and it came in 3/4/5 taps/pops in a row.  The BEST feeling.

And, now that I'm home laying down and really concentrating on it (while I poke at my stomach over and over...I can't help it!), it literally feels like I have a tiny little fish swimming around in my belly.  It's so strange...but so awesome. 

I cannot wait until I start feeling these kicks daily and even stronger...and I really can't wait for Hubs to start feeling some kicks from the outside!  He's never felt a baby kick before, and he's been saying that the first baby he wants to feel move is our baby.  So, I'm hoping it's sooner than later for him.  It's going to be so amazing to see his face the first time he actually feels him/her!

Oh, and just in case you were wondering...only 6 MORE DAYS until our big ultrasound!!  :D
