xxmadsenxxI'm sorry for not replying to anything...I will. I've just been REALLY busy getting everything ready for Christmas. I procrastinate WAY too much, so I had to do a shitload of wrapping today. But yeah, I just wanted to post something really quick.
I just got done playing Santa. Being Santa is a lot of work! Not so much the putting out the presents part, but all the rest of it. It's fun though. Evan is REALLY excited. It took me a while to get him to go to bed. I finally told him what my mom used to tell me...that Santa wouldn't come if he didn't go to sleep lol. So he did. Having a kid makes Christmas so much more fun. I remember how Christmas seemed so magical when I was a kid. It's nice to be able to see it like that again, through Evan's eyes.
Now that Jenny and I are done being Santa and Mrs. Claus, we're going to just lie in bed watching Christmas movies. Well, probably one movie. We'll see. I'm not really tired, but I need to be. I know Evan is going to wake us up really early. No doubt about that.
I felt the baby move for the first time today! I wasn't expecting to be able to feel her move for another week or two, but I did today! Evan, B, B's girlfriend, Jenny and I were watching The Muppet Christmas Carol (Evan AND Jenny's favorite lol). I had my hand on Jenny's belly, and I felt the baby move! It wasn't a big kick or anything obviously...it's too early for that. But I felt her move a little bit! It was exciting. Such a cool thing to feel. It's weird but cool to think that at Christmas next year we'll be married with another baby. At least I hope we'll be married by then...we still haven't set a date. Jenny wants to make sure she's not "fat," which she never is. But I know she wants to lose whatever baby weight she gains first. But anyway, feeling the baby move for the first time today made me really excited. It's pretty cool that I felt her move for the first time on Christmas Eve.
Jenny's out of the shower now, so I have to go watch whatever Christmas movie she picks with her. I hope you all have a great Christmas! I know we will. :) To those of you who don't celebrate it, have a great day too!
