Bump in the Night

About a week and a half ago, I started to feel little flutters in my stomach. I wasn't sure if it was the baby or not, so I decided to pay close attention to everything I felt, with the hopes that I could learn to decipher between the baby and other bodily movements.

Last night, I felt some more flutters, so I decided to put my hand on my stomach to see if I could feel the flutter on the outside of my body as well. Imagine my excitment when I could not only feel it inside, but I also felt the movement on the outside! I was so excited. So of course, I wanted Chris to feel it, too. Unfortunately, the baby realized what we were doing and decided to stop playing.

A few hours later, while we were laying in bed, I felt the baby move again. I grabbed Chris' hand and placed it on my stomach and told him to wait. A few seconds later, the baby moved and he totally felt it. The look on his face was priceless!

Here is the conversation that followed:

Me: "Did you feel that?"
Chris: "Yeah."
Me: "Isn't that so cool?"
Chris: "Are you sure you don't just have gas?"

Luckily, the baby moved a few more times while we sat there, so I was able to convince Chris that it was in fact the baby, and not my bowels.

It's a miracle!

I don't know how I did it, but I somehow restored all of my blog lists! I just want to jump for joy! And to top it off, the darling background you see was also saved somewhere in cyberspace, and just happened to show up on my blog. I simply couldn't be happier!

Now that my blog is back to normal (hopefully!), I will soon post pictures of our latest adventures. My sister, Carly, thinks I'm the biggest slacker when it comes to blogging, but it's mostly because I don't post any real pictures of us. But let's be honest--Chris and I don't have much to take pictures of...yet! However, we have a few to add from our adventures this summer, including the first, and certainly not last, baby bump pic! Stay tuned--you'll be glad you did!

Need Some Help

Since I lost all of my blog lists, I have to start from scratch. If you wouldn't mind, please leave me a comment with your blog address so that I can put it back on. Don't worry--I will moderate all the comments so you don't have to publish your blog address to the whole world. I'm sure I can track down most of blogs I had previously listed by visiting other blogs, but this may be a little easier.

Thanks for your help and your patience. I am still in the process of fixing my blog, but I hope to have it up and running again in no time :)

I hate technology!

I am officially upset! I tried to change my background by editing the html and it erased all of my blog lists. Is there anyway to recover them? And to top it off, I don't have the "Customize" option anymore, so I don't have any way of editing my page elements. What happened?!
