Tummy Games

Barrett was an active little one last night! My tummy was dancing all over the place. Matt was trying to feel the baby move, but he decided to stop dancing as soon as Matt put his hand on my stomach. Then he started all over again! We thought he probably had the hiccups, but he was moving a little bit more than that.

Matt started pushing on different parts of my tummy, and wherever Matt pushed, Barrett kicked back. He did this for a LONG time! It was so hard for me to stay still and not start laughing because I knew if I moved everything would have stopped. Matt was sooo excited! I believe his words were "That's the coolest thing I've ever done in my life! I'm playing games with my son and he's not even BORN yet!"

He had a hard time winding down to go to sleep after that. Every time I looked at him he had a grin on his face. Even this morning he woke up talking about "the game" from last night. That's definitely the most interaction Matt's been able to have with the baby this whole pregnancy ... usually he just misses all the activity by a couple of seconds.
