wow. having the size of my baby translated into fruit is just an interesting concept. it sure provides me with a vivid mental image of what is inside of me. that, and it just plain makes me hungry.
i have started to feel little 'nubee' kicking more and more. well, still more of the fluttering, but i imagine stronger kicks are coming very soon. i am hoping 'nubee' is more laid back than emma, but when i look at my husband, something tells me i am in for another active child. c'est la vie. at least my first darling emma bee is a bundle of pure joy. her zest for life is truly inspiring. and exhausting.
i am amazed that 23 weeks have gone by so quickly. that i am already past the half way mark astounds me. i am full of both excitement and utter anxiety. i see my friend coping with a toddler and a newborn with amazing grace and joy and that really gives me inspiration and hope. then again, i think my friend is a bit more positive than i am in just about everything...so maybe i'll be a blubbering idiot with no clue and crazed fits of hysteria. we'll just have to wait and see. i'm striving for the zen state of mind, personally. *crosses fingers*
