We have decided that our little muchkin on the way shall be named Makenzie Kaylynn. I love the name. I am so excited, and it feels so good to be able to give the baby that is growing inside of me a name. That way now when I talk to her I can call her by her name. I do talk to her all of the time. It is awesome. Josh really liked the name Makenzie. We won't tell our little princess to be that she is named after a hunting target. haha. and Kaylynn came from a road trip with my amazing sister. We were headed up the coast and stopped in Solvang. As we were eating dinner I saw this candle shop and it was called Kaylin's candles or something of the sort. I really liked the name A LOT. A few minutes later I liked it even more when I realized that it has special meaning behind it as well. Kay is my sister's middle name and Lynn is my mom's. So I am changing the spelling to Kaylynn. I love it love it love it.
I had thought that I had felt her move for a while, but wasn't sure. Everyone told me that it felt like a gas bubble but I never really paid attention to what they felt like in the past. Then someone told me that it feels like a little flutter in your stomach and that is exactly what I felt. As I was home with my family as I laid down at night I felt this weird feeling in my stomach and concluded that it must be little Makenzie stretching out, and the next morning she got the hang of it and I could feel her moving around a bunch. It is still a little surreal that something, rather someone is growing inside of me! So cool. This is where I feel like the guys miss out. Josh has yet to feel her move but I'm sure he will in the near future. She now moves around quite often, especially when I am sitting over the computer. I can hear her in my head, "Um excuse me mom, could you stop hunching over like that...I'm trying to relax here and not be cramped." Haha. I have also officially popped. I will post pictures soon! It is fun! Well that is the update I have now. I was just reminded that it is already 7 and we haven't yet eaten dinner. oops. back to my wifely duties and away from the computer I go. I shall write more later.
Please pray for little Makenzie as you think of her. That God's perfect plan would be carried out for her life! Love you all!
LOVE the name. Good job mama! Feeling them move is so amazing & yes Josh will feel it soon. I always felt Lydia dance around when I took a bath. And that is when we first SAW my stomach move. So try that sometime! SO EXCITING!!
