To my baby:
Seeing for the very first time
Bebe Winans
Is this your smile
Or is that sunlight through the trees
Was that your sigh
Or just a gentle breeze
Is this your voice
Rolling waves upon the sea
Is this a dream
Or can it be
That I'm seeing for the very first time
The rustling leaves
That bring your laughter all around
The dancing wind
Feet barely touching down
Is this a song
Or nature's perfect melody
Is this a dream
Or can it be
That I'm seeing for the very first time
Or can it be
That I'm seeing for the very first time
Now is that my heart
Was that thunder with this rain
Was that a spark
Did you touch me once again
Are those my eyes
Or are you looking back at me
Is this a miracle
Can it be true
That its possible to make one heart of two
It's not a dream
I do believe,
I do believe
That I'm seeing for the very first
Seeing for the very first.......
Seeing for the very first time.
Last night my husband and i experienced another breath taking moment. I'm not quite sure what it was exactly... maybe an elbow, or a knee... it could have been the heel of his foot, or it could have been his hand... Our baby showed us a little taste of what its going to be like to touch him... and see him... for the very first time. It was so small... just a little tiny bump. It felt so real- it felt so fragile.. being able to brush our hands over the little bump that poked out of my tummy for about 30 seconds... felt like an hour. It seemed like everything was moving in slow motion. I felt an uncomfortable feeling on the side of my belly and just naturally just rubbed it. I kind of jumped when i realized that there was something actually there. I ran over to my husband as fast as i could and together we felt the little protruding whatever it was... Smiling... laughing... crying... really feeling as if we are seeing for the very first time...
What an amazing little miracle that is growing inside. Jayden is constantly moving around these days. This was the first time that he actually gave us a visual. I just wish i could identify what it was exactly. I guess that will come with time.
It is so hard to imagine that in 3 months, our lives are going to be completely changed. It is a little nerve racking at times, but with every passing day, with every smile that stretches across David's face from ear to ear, and with every little kick that Jayden gives me as a reminder that he can hardly wait to see me too....my desire to meet this little one grows stronger...
On the day he is born, i know, i will be seeing for the very first time...

You are looking great in your new picture!
Rest, rest, rest!!! Sleep in as much as humanly possible. You will need the energy in 3 months when he's ready to come out. ;o)
Aww... that must have been such a wonderful experience! You sure are getting big mommy. :o) I can hardly wait to hold the little man in my arms! I love you nanners!
Do you ever update this thing anymore missy?
OH! Hi Jessimo... ya i update this thing every now and then. its just been so hard lately. My boss is out of town again for a week and a half and her best friend just died- so i have been tied up here at work like you would not believe. I can hardly wait to see your face when you hold my little man for the very first time... He is going to love his CUZ.... I love you so much and i can hardly wait to see you in one month! YEAH!
Hi Rachel,
Thank you for the compliment... those are hard to come by these days. Jayden is kicking up a storm now. I didnt think his kicks could get any stronger, but he can pack a pretty powerful punch... I am starting to notice that the drowsiness i experienced in my first trimester is beginning to overtake me again... is that normal?
