Slip'n'Slide

Avery is not so much kicking as she is doing cartwheels inside my uterus. This morning Jamie and I laid in bed and watched my tummy bounce around... It was pretty funny. I guess I 'm getting use to the discomfort of pregnancy so I'm in a slightly bit better mood. ...Still tired and feel oh so very heavy and slow but I've forgotten what having my own body feels like so I don't complain as much. I'm sure jamie would be rolling his eyes right now if he reads this but what ever...This is my blog. My account of things, my way or the highway and please take your comments with you.

So I'm getting use to not fitting in the bathtub anymore. Really I fit except my thicker parts(belly/boobs) never submerge. It's funny taking a bath. Until the pregnancy I only took showers but I enjoy getting off of my feet every chance I have and I've discovered that I love Bathtime. so much that it really isn't anything for me to think about taking two in one day.

The other day, while I was sitting there with my belly chilling in the open air above the suds, I started rocking the bathwater from front to back of the bathtub (we have a small, regular size tub, nothing fancy with jets or cascading facets) I remember doing this as a child and watching the water rise up and almost splash over the barrier.
This evening as the water came back to a stand still and all the motion in the tub subsided, my baby girl decided she wanted more 'wave pool' and started jostling around inside of me so I began rocking in the water again, this time paying attention to Avery's activity.
As I moved the water back and forth using my body in the tub, I realized that my tummy , even though the top part stuck out of the suds, was moving with the current of water. Avery was quite inside.
I did this for only a minute and allowed the water to slow down and become still. The very instant no motion from the tub could be detected, Avery started wiggling and bouncing around. It was too funny, my little girl was having a blast with the wave pool and wanted it to keep moving.
I did this a couple more times and even called Batman in so he could witness how funny the baby was. I'm sure these are the memories I'll have to tell Avery all about when she gets older.
