Feelin' It

Yesterday after church, Kuso and I went to take a nap. Leila was quite active so I had him lay with his hand across my stomach. He finally had the chance to feel her move! It was awesome. That was his first physical touch experience to know that she is alive! He's seen the ultrasound, and seen my body get bigger, but for him to actually feel the movement was great! Along with more movement has come other pregnancy related issues....stretch marks. The first faint ones showed themselves over the weekend...guess it's time to get serious about keeping my skin moisturized.

On a side note...he is hurt. He hurt his back on Memorial Day. He's not quite sure how. Probably just playing volleyball too long after not being able to play at that level for several months. Anyway, his back is just sore. Extremely sore. He moves like an old man getting in and out of the car. He walks around okay, but we know his back is hurting because he admits that he shouldn't play rugby or volleyball or work for at least a week or two...maybe longer. (For any of you that know him, that is AMAZING for him to give up his games and to miss work.) He worked about 3 days last week and said it was so painful it wasn't even worth going back. He found a guy who does the Samoan Style massages. He's hoping that with a few sessions of that, he will get feeling better much sooner!
