It's crazy, but I have definitely been feeling baby move more and more over the last few days. It's not what I was expecting, although I really don't know what I was expecting to feel. I can tell you that I don't think I liked it at first because it was really weird...pressure...almost (ALMOST, mind you) painful. I didn't really know what it was for obvious reasons, but the more I felt it, the more I knew. Now, the more I'm feeling it, the more I'm liking it. It really makes you feel close to your baby like no one can describe. It's a wordless sensation...women try to put words to it, but it's not the same coming from any one woman. Some say it feels like gas bubbles, others say butterflies, I had one woman tell me it felt like a little worm inside. Truly, none of those things describe it for me, it's just the reality of knowing that my baby really IS inside of me, because it's indescribably awesome. I sat down this morning, eating french toast and chocolate milk and felt the baby begin to move and I had to smile because I think it got a sugar high. ;-) I think it's just so cool...
In other news, I'm working the main restaurant tonight...yes...Friday night. I'm scared out of my wits! You see, during the school year, with two colleges in the vicinity, that place is crazy! I'm glad to find out that there are going to be 1-2 other people there at the front helping me with the various duties of a host/ess. The things I am expected to do:
1) Seat customers while trying to keep it fairly split for the waiters/waitresses.
2)Run the register, which includes the credit card machine.
3) Insert tips into the credit card machine while in down time.
4) Answer the phone
5) Take down to-go orders & take them to the kitchen
6) Get the to-go orders bagged up with the correct stuff in them (salsa, chips, utensils, tortillas if needed, etc.)--this is a crazy task if you have many to-go orders...I had 7 at one time the other day!.
7) Just keep smiling, smiling, smiling!
I'm sure there are other things I'm expected to do, but that's mostly what I do and it really keeps me busy as a bee. Well, my name does mean 'honeybee'! So, I'm glad to have someone else to help when it's crazy busy tonight...because that's just way to much for my little prego brain to handle right now.

It is cool, isn't it Missy? I looooved feeling my babies move when I was pregnant. It was so....cool! And you're right, indescribable. But kinda a little like, well....almost like I had this little alien living inside of me. LOL. But at the same time a very very precious feeling that's just one of the best things in the whole wide world! <3 ~Carolyn =)
