Today, like most days, Karl got woken up an hour early by work calls. He eventually went out to the other room because he had to solve a bunch of communication problems, and I just lay there in bed, grumpy over the loss of sleep. I was laying on my side so my arm was kind of draped over my belly... and that's when Evie decided she wanted to be awake too! She was kicking me so hard my arm was moving! I almost called Karl back to come feel her moving around, but I didn't want to interrupt him while he was being business-y. Eventually Evie calmed down and Karl came back to bed. I was a little disappointed because that's what always happens! She loves to stop moving as soon as daddy's around and wants to feel her. Anyway, he got back into bed and we cuddled up together to try to get a few more minutes of sleep before we had to head to school... but Evie had different ideas. I felt her kick really hard and it made me giggle a little, but then I realized that Karl made a noise when she kicked too! Evie was kicking him in the back and he was feeling it! Suddenly she was going crazy again and keeping us both awake. I thought it was funny :)
As grumpy as I was about not getting that hour of sleep (it's been a REALLY bad sleep week for us!), I'm really glad we got to have a bonding moment with our baby cakes!

Haha I remember when Emma would do that too. Especially at the beginning when she would do the same thing Evie would do and stop kicking when Andrew came around! You just wait when she gets bigger...I had MANY sleepless nights the last few weeks of pregnancy cause she was kicking so hard. haha Hopefully Evie doesn't get used to waking up too early...or staying up too late! ;) I do want to see you baby belly!
