23 weeks…

Things I want to remember about week 23… You little man, are quite the little wiggler! Any time I lay down, you go wild and I love it more than anything. More so than any of my other pregnancies, I have been swept away by the magic of growing a little human that I know I’ll spend my whole life loving. Stretch marks and love handles, barfing and all, Im loving my growing bump in a way I never quite have before. I want to remember the way Vivi is constantly kissing my bare belly and announcing “mommy kisses, baby brother kisses!!!” then blowing raspberries on it right afterward and saying “did baby brother toot?!” And laughs at her own joke every time. She loves “introducing” baby brother to people too. Lucy is my girl with a million questions and always wants to know where he is exactly and what he’s doing. She’s also very curious about how baby brother is going to bust out of there and is especially hung up on what happens when my water breaks, and if the baby will “fall out right away” afterward. Let’s just say we’ve had allll kinds of informative conversations lately! Max is mostly interested in passing down the teeny tiny pumas that we’re his as a newborn and ordering some mini Seahawks apparel right away. And he has ZERO interest in any of the answers to Lucy’s questions. We all love to throw baby names out for discussion- Max is stuck on Henry, Lucy likes Benjamin, Vivian likes “puppy-sky” and “stick”  But one thing is for sure- all five of us can hardly wait to meet the sixth member of the family and we couldn’t love this little guy more. #onemorekettlebaby
