because I've been quiet...

There's very little "new" to report about baby Hafer. He's doing fine and seems to be growing pretty quickly. With each passing day I think I can feel him moving around more and more. He definitely enjoys sitting around with his head up (breech) because I feel him kicking around very low most of the time. I wouldn't complain, but it's a very strange feeling to have someone poking around down there all the time.

I'm having a harder time getting comfortable at night but I'm still managing to get rest. I'm thankful for that because I had a few nights of insomnia very early in the pregnancy and they were miserable. Unfortunately since I'm working about 9 - 9.5 hours a day I'm ready to fall asleep by 9:30 or earlier each night. Poor Darrell is rarely tired until at least 11... and that's when he's not studying until the wee hours of the morning.

I found a little swing to match the jumper we bought on craigslist and my wonderful friend Kathy picked it up for me last night. We will probabably buy a stroller/carseat combo in a few weeks since it is a necessity but leave the rest of the smaller and not so necessary stuff to chill out on the baby registries at Target and Babies R Us. I don't anticipate a huge number of people to be shopping from it, but at least if anyone goes looking it will be there.

I'm just so excited to start getting everything put together. It might be a little too early but I'm not really in the mood to care. At the least I want the room painted this weekend. Yup.
