Things that go 'bump' in the night

So, I have recently been asked if I've felt the baby kick yet. The answers is--YES! At about 5 months I started feeling little 'taps' that I can only assume were kicks or punches. That was totally exciting! Well, things are changing for sure in there! About 2 days ago, I was driving in the car and thinking to myself that I hadn't felt him move that day. Right on cue, I yelped out loud and my head actually spun a bit as I was on the business end of our future soccer player's kick! I hadn't felt him that strongly to date, and it was amazing! Then, for the rest of the day, he was tapping on me and wriggling around in there. Well, I called mom and John, because I was just too giddy about such movement. Later that night, while watching tv with John, I yelped again, probably causing some concern to the daddy-to-be as I was kicked again. I can't tell you how strong that kick was...so crazy that there is a little being in there just a movin and kickin all over the place. You know, people always told me it felt like butterflies, but seriously. It doesn't to me. It either felt like popcorn popping in my belly, or when he squirms without kicking, like a fish is flipping or wriggling inside me! Baby Boy is at about 10 inches long, and almost a pound in weight now! The fingernails are formed, and tooth buds are mostly in place now. The eyelids are still fused shut, but only for a few more weeks! We've got a little tiny baby in there!
