On the right foot ...
I've had some trouble uploading images, so here I am finally putting up this Christmas photo. My mother had the right idea ... make sure the boy's a Steelers fan from as young an age as possible. That won't be easy here in Eagle country. If he turns out to be an Eagles fan, I can live with that. (Heck, if he turns out not to like football, I'll still survive). But early on, I'm planning on aiming him toward the Steelers.On other issues: Someone commented on my previous blog entry, saying it is indeed true that babies don't blink for the first three months or so. What? Why am I only hearing about this now? That's the kind of knowledge parents need, I think. I would absolutely be freaked out by that if I didn't know ahead of time.
Other other issues: I'm amazed that Amanda can sleep through the baby moving and kicking. This morning, I felt the baby moving around while Amanda was still happily sleeping away. No way I could do that.

Truth be told, I NEVER knew OR noticed that our son didn't blink. That sounds so weird...I think I am rather glad that I didn't know that either. My husband swears that he remembers seeing our son blink...in fact he was fanatical about his eyes...so I'm sure he would remember him not blinking. HHHHMMMM....makes me think! And I too could sleep through the parties my son would throw in my belly! Fascinating isn't it!
OK, about the blinking thing... I am in my seventh month and have almost an obsession with watching those shows about babies. Special Delivery, Birth Story, Maternity Ward, etc. I don't know who told you about the blinking thing, but if you watch some of these shows once in a while, you'll see, babies---newborns---blink. Not at the speed older toddlers/children/adults do, but they do indeed blink! On another note, I can't sleep through the kicking at all. Seems like I have just fallen asleep and my baby decides to start dancing around. Wakes me right up!
