Two New Things!

#1. On Saturday, Paul and I went and bought a new car. We have been researching and Paul has been communicating with dealerships for a while now. The decision was to trade in my cute little two-door coupe for a larger, more family friendly car. I knew that one day it had to be done, so Saturday was it. We went to the Mazda dealership early and, even going in with a price ahead of time, it still took us three hours before we got out of there. Did I mention that they forgot to tell us we have a Sirrius satellite kit installed in the car, they forgot our antennae, and I left my garage door opener in my Honda? It was an exciting day!

Goodbye cute little sport car!

Hello mom car!

#2. I'M FEELING THE BABY MOVE! Or at least I think I am. Lately, I've been asking my pregnant and mother type friends what it feels like when you first start to feel the baby move. I've received various responses. But for me, last night I started feeling a "flick". It's kind of like when you can feel your pulse on your wrist or neck.

Paul and I were on the computer last night when I turned to him and said, "I just felt three flicks." After that I didn't feel anything for a while, but as we were going to bed, I felt them again. Today, I've felt them sporadically as well. It's usually when I'm sitting still and really trying to pay attention to them.

I'm hoping that it's the baby I'm feeling because then at least I'll know that he/she is doing ok in there.
