Ok, so he's definitely not doing *that* to my belly yet! But, Oliver is extremely active these days. While I have been feeling him move for a week or two now, I am able to feel him much more frequently, and he is becoming stronger every day! Yesterday, he picked a time when I was in a meeting to begin swiftly kicking my bladder several times in a row. I think he has his father's sense of humor.
I feel him a lot in the evenings, and have been calling Andy over to put his hand where I'm feeling him. I think Andy thought I was making up the movement, because usually Oliver would stop moving or just kick very softly after that, so of course Andy hadn't been able to feel anything! BUT, last night I felt Oliver starting up while we were laying down, and I put Andy's hand in the right spot. In just a second, Oliver delivered a pretty hard kick right in the same spot! Andy felt it finally! Oliver continued on and got in 4-5 good ones that Andy could feel. What a cool moment that we can both finally feel him moving around in there. I feel like being able to feel him move has made me feel even more connected to him than before.
Also we've gotten some more progress made on the nursery! His room is now painted except for the closet, which we will tackle later this week. I think the color we picked is perfect. It's a lighter gray color which will go with all the colors we have planned for the room, and help it still feel calm and soothing.
We also have finished one of the curtain panels, and several fitted sheets! Andy is also now working on making some wool soaker pants to put over the cloth diapers.
