the "moves"!

24 weeks and 3 days old. that's how old i am today... and as always i am getting plumpier... well, bigger :) as for my latest updates...

my movements are really stronger now that if you touch mom's belly you'd already feel my light calisthenics. these acrobatics would sometimes wake mom up (well, aside from the uber active bladder) in the middle of her deep slumber. most often, when mom wakes up to pee, she'd have a hard time falling back to sleep coz i would move almost nonstop when she's awake at dawn. i know, i know, it's such a bad time to choose to play.. but i just want to play with her ;). i'm sure she doesn't mind. she always tells me to move coz that soothes her (yep, call mom a masochist coz she'd rather have me kick her hard, even if it causes some pain sometimes, rather than not do anything at all).

there was this one instance when she woke up at around 4am and couldn't sleep anymore (yeah, coz of me) coz she felt hungry as i was playing inside her tummy. worried that i was hungry too (coz i really moved non-stop), she went downstairs and braved the dark just to get us a peanut butter sandwich and a glass of milk. dad was still in deep sleep and she didn't want to wake him up. dad told her afterwards though that she should've asked him instead so that we wouldn't need to go downstairs anymore... well, next time dad, and of course i'd be happier if you'd eat with us too :D.

also, the night of mother's day, before dad started reading to me, he told me to greet mom by kicking her hard. i'm a proud daddy's girl remember? so i obliged and kicked mom so hard that both of them saw it. dad was ecstatic! he then cheered on me and kissed me right away. as his lips were on my mom's tummy, i kissed him back... well, alright, i kicked him hard too that he really felt me on his lips. if i just kissed him back, he wouldn't feel it and he wouldn't be as happy as he were when i did that, hahaha.

oh, there's another proof that i'm getting really big (or is mom getting big? teehee)... dad cuts mom's toenails now. yeah, she couldn't bend down that much anymore. so my ever loving dad, does that for her now. how sweet! :)

that's all folks! ... i just hope that tonight my parents would be successful in hearing my heartbeat through the bebe sound "microphone" (stethoscope-like thingamagig) that tito kim and tita hiyas lend them. thanks tito and tita!
