Felt Baby's First Hiccup??? I've been soo swamped with work to tell you that I I think I felt the baby's first hiccup on Monday morning! I woke up thirsty, so I had a glass of apple juice and another glass of water. After then, I felt something pulsating up and down internally near underneath my stomach. Even if it wasn't a hiccup, i felt something move. It was for a few minutes too. oddly enough today at 17 weeks, I read on this website that right about now, it would be hiccuping. I was soo happy to feel something. I told my co-workers and Cindy. Kris was at work so I didn't want to bother him. Anyways, just thought I'd share that news : ) I'll get to hear it's hearbeat again this friday!!! Can't wait.

2008 will be another bittersweet year... 2007 was one memorable year. It began with a neck injury that lead to bad meds that lead me to insomnia for 3 months. They say everything happens for a reason and perhaps it allowed me to face what will be...sleepless nights with the baby. In the end, all is well with my first art show and selling a painting and of course my pregnancy in later September. There was a bittersweet moment with my grandmothers passing in December.
2008 will be a great year with the birth of my baby. #8 is a lucky number and the rat is suppose to match my dragon personality : ). We'll see. It will be yet another year of bittersweet moment though IF Cindy decides to move to Virginia. It makes me cry everytime I think about it. It's going to be one battle that's going to take time to except. I never do well with goodbyes. People who leave always say they'll come back, but they never do. I've had it happen too many times in my life to know better to never believe in them. Cindy and I are twins, we're suppose to be inseparable. I can't hate her or Rob for making that decision, but it's going to be hard to except it for what it is because our kids were suppose to grow up together. I'll admit that this is the main reason why I want a girl. It's so my parents can have another grand daughter since they'll loose Alyssa. We'll all miss them dearly. So, I hope I'll be too busy with my child to feel any sadness when it's suppose to be a joyous time for me. I feel terrible for Cindy too. She'll be so alone without any families around. She's got so much more to loose for moving out there, but that's the decision they've decided on. I can't tell them how to live their lives. In the long run, I just hope they'll come back. I'll pray for the best, but lately praying hasn't done much for me lately, except for this wonderful blessing that's coming our way. Positive thoughts...

Dreams on a boy I must admit, the last few weeks, I've been only dreaming of boys. Whether, the boy belong to me or someone else, it was a boy! I wonder if this meant that I'll have a boy??? I think i better start thinking of boys names...hehehe. I don't know if it had a lot to do with Kris always talking about his "junior". A few years back I've had dreams of boys too. So, we'll see when Jan 18th comes around. I wouldn't mind having a girl, but boys would have it's own benefits too : ) The anticipation is growing stronger and we just cannot wait to find out. We need to remember, patience is virtue.
