He's a Kicker

Ever since the first ultrasound, Colin has been a mover. He won't hardly stay still, especially for the doctor and ultrasound tech. During the first ultrasound we watched him punch his little fist. During the second ultrasound he kept moving so the ultrasound tech was having a hard time getting the shots he needed to make sure Colin was growing the way he needs to be. And every time we go to the doctor he is calm until the doctor pulls out the microphone. After that it is like he is trying to run away and it takes the doctor a few minutes to get a good heartbeat. At our last doctor appointment, Colin actually kicked (or punched) the microphone. It was too funny. Joel and the doctor weren't sure what had happened exactly, they just heard the noise. Later I told Joel what Colin had done, and we just laughed and laughed about it.
One of Colin's favorite activities is kicking my bladder. It can be very annoying, but I love him anyways. Today, Colin's feet are up by my ribs and he has been kicking for about 2 hours. I hope he has strong leg muscles from all this kicking when he is born.

These are pictures from the first and second ultrasounds.
He has gotten so big!

New Blog

So this is my new blog. My awesome sister-in-law, Britta, helped me design the layout. I think it is super cute!! There are still a few tweeks to be made, but I am excited to have a blog now:) Let's just hope I stay up to date on it instead of slacking.
