Moments Continued

These have been posted on the side of my blog, but to document, these are the added moments that take my breath away:

-I read the comments that people had left about this entry last time, and it made me cry.

-I was singing a night time song to Owen. He was trying to sing along, but didn't know the words at all. He just stared at me without blinking, while cutely singing the wrong words. At the same time we both just started cracking up.

-I've been waiting for weeks to KNOW that I feel the baby kicking. Trev and I were laying in bed on a Sunday afternoon and we both felt it kick for the first time together. Then we looked at eachother, and without saying a word, knew that we were the luckiest people in the world, and were so in love.

-We were all hot and tired and hungry (and I, of course, had to pee). We walked down a bunch of switch backs in the pouring rain to see lower falls in Yellowstone. The sun suddenlty came out and there were three beautiful rainbows over the canyon.

-I was getting ready for work and Cameron asked me to watch the, "Mommy-Daddy Show" (which is the slideshow of pictures from us dating and engagement.)

-My mom gets to EAT!!!!

-I was tucking the boys in and telling them that, "Tomorrow we get to go see some fireworks, and that Oma and Billy might come to." Owen looked at me and said, "Oma ouch getting better."

-I'm sitting at work for the first day since I've truly felt the baby kick. I can't stop smiling cause the little bugger doesn't stop! (All the guys think I'm crazy here!)
-I had been up all night with pregnancy pains. In the morning I was sitting on the couch and got a sharp intense pain that sent me to tears. Immediatly all 3 of my boys were right by me. Cameron went and got his blanket (his comfort item) and said, "You ok mom? Here ya go. Blanket make it better."

-I was rambling off names to the boys and asking them what we should call the baby. Owen was drawing with sidewalk chalk, drew a line (which is a person) and said, "Mom, call the baby Jesus!"

-The morning of our 4 year anniversary we put in our wedding video and all sat down and watched it. When I started walking down the isle with my dad Cameron said, "It's pa-pa Aldrich. I like him."

-The boys always get to pick one song for us to sing to them before bed. After I finished singing Cameron still wanted more songs. I told him that was the last one mommy was singing. He was sad. So Owen got out of his bed and sat by Cameron. He started rubbing his back and sang him Twinkle Little Star.

-I got about 2 hours of sleep and had an early (7am) morning dentist appointment. I'm laying in the chair getting a filling, a little shaky from no sleep and novicane. I put my hands in the pocket of my hoodie and felt the baby kick over and over. (This was the first time I had from the outside!)

-I'm at the ER with Owen getting 6 stitches in his ear, our faces right next to each other's, staring in eachother's eyes. All I can think of, "I'm so so proud to be your mom".

-We're getting the 19 week ultrasound, I've got jelly all over my belly, and can't take my eyes off the screen. Trev scoots his chair closer to me and grabs my hand.

-The ultrasound guy is trying to check the babies face and lips and the baby would not put his arms down.

-I'm saying my goodbyes before I go to work and I sit on Trev's lap for a second and he wraps his arms around me. Cameron looks up and says, "That's your mommy". Knowing Trev wouldn't give up his goodbye hug.

-We're sitting in church and Cameron is playing with Dora stickers. He puts the "Mommi" on one hand and the "Poppi" on the other. He puts his hands together and makes a kissing noise. I guess he knows moms and dads kiss!

-(This one's not "politically correct" to talk about publically... but when you have two year olds it just doesn't matter) Both boys are in the bathroom with me (this has become very normal since we started talking about potties). I stand up and Cameron looks in it. "Mommy went poop. Good job mom, high five! You get chocolate!"
