28 Weeks!



Twenty-eight weeks has arrived. Being the mathmatical genius I am, I made the following calculation on my cell phone calculator:

28/40=0.7

This means, obviously, we are roughly 70% through the pregnancy. This also means, also obviously, there is only roughly 30% of the pregnancy left. But something tells me, given Alyse's superior genetic makeup, she'll be ready ahead of schedule—even if it is only two days early and I get my wish of a groundhog baby!

There have been many significant changes in Alyse's demeanor over the past few weeks. What once were sporadic and quick movements have transformed into longer, sustained movements over the surface of Charlotte's belly. In fact, several times throughout the day one may feel a large solid spot (which is either her head, back, or bum), if one was so inclined. Sometimes Charlotte and I sit and watch her belly during Alyse's most active times and just watch it move, and move, and move, and move....

The "Sit and Watch the Belly Move" phase is fine enough, but it pales in comparison to the "Sit and Watch the Eyes Blink" phase. Eat it.

Nah, I'm just kidding, you're all right.

I definitely think she'll be a groundhog baby. I don't know if you remember, but we found out we were pregnant on Groundhog Day. Clearly there is a special connection between our family and that day.

Go Alyse!
