Today Felix was going crazy kicking the crap out of me, so I pushed him back with my hand on my belly. Then my hand totally moved as he kicked me back. I'm so excited because that means Kyle can feel it now!!!

Games Kyle's Playing
- NBA 2k12 --- I know. I KNOW. I've probably played the NBA 2k series for atleast 350 real life hours. And yes, I KNOW that if I applied that time to any sort of constructive endeavor, I could probably boast actual abs, an add-on to the house, or a historical fiction novel. But I just don't care. The 2k series is the best sports simulation series ever made. And I will probably play it until I die.
- Madden 12 --- Since the NBA is in a lockout, with basically no signs of ever becoming anything more than rich people personally spitting on me and my devotion, I felt I needed to find a new outlet. As the NFL is the country's biggest obsession, I figured I had probably get on board. I bought this game in large measure to relearn everything I'd forgotten about football since the early nineties when I last cared. And it did it's work well.
- Deus Ex: Human Revolution --- Upgrading a bionic man while tiptoeing through warehouses? I accept.
- Mount and Blade: With Fire and Sword --- It seems at first glance everything you could want in a semi-tactical, mostly action-oriented historical battle game. You rouse troops, you train them, you arm them, you lead them into battle. You track looters and punish them. You try to navigate the political turmoil of 17th century eastern europe. But it's just so messy. It tries to be epic to the point where it seems unfocused. The interface is clumsy to me, and I got so sick of trying to learn the nuances of directing my troops that I always devolved into eventually abandoning them to their fates, while riding around lopping heads off. Cause that's where the fun was at anyway.
What Kyle's Reading
- Nightlife by Rob Thurman --- Jeff introduced me to this author. After the density of A Song of Ice and Fire, it was nice to just jump into a light story with fun characters. Basically the story of what happens when demons make a baby, and the baby doesn't turn out to be that bad at being a person.
- A Feast for Crows by George RR Martin --- He introduces a giant roster of new people. Some of them interesting, some of them not so much. It's kind of a grab bag of new information about regions not heard from before. But overall, the only book in the series that I had to force myself to read, instead of forcing myself to stop for the sake of sleep requirements. Still a good book, but one I had to just get through moreso than savor.
- A Storm of Swords by George RR Martin --- This is my favorite volume so far. There were goosebump moments galore.
- A Clash of Kings by George RR Martin --- Has one of the most intense battle sequences I've ever read. I can't wait to see it on HBO.

I just read that to Kyle, and he got all excited, it was cute.
Just keep in mind that babies can tell when their dads are feeling for kicks, and they NEVER do it when Dad's there! Maybe that was just us, though.
That's NOT just Erinn and Ryan. It's true. They will get Dad's hopes up every time and then if Kyle is like Jeff, he will accuse you of lying, just to prove his inferiority. MOSTLY he'll be wrong.
That's always a milestone. Makes the entire process so much more exciting until about the eighth month...and then you just want to sleep.
That's the coolest feeling ever -- the best part of being pregnant. The weirdest is when you lay down at night and the baby starts adjusting to get comfy. My kids were some serious acrobats. I'm so excited for you!
that's so fun!! erinn and rainey are right. except one time jerome laid his head on my pregnant belly and story kicked him in the head. he was cramping her style i guess. :)
That's exactly what Kyle was doing last night. But he did not kick, it just hurt me a lot.
I gave it the benefit of the doubt.
But it just caused more doubts.
Fun! My favorite part for sure, I remember the first time Kory saw my stomach move, Axel had hiccups or something and my belly was going crazy (I was way farther along) and kory's eyes got all wide! It was cool and fun for all.
You guys are in a fun place right now, enjoy it and take LOADS of pictures.
This is a comment on one of the books Kyle want to read: I've pretty much read all of Alice Hoffman's novels. And Practical Magic is pretty good. MUCH better than the movie.
oh yeah and your bathroom looks fabulous! Very Martha Stewart!
