So today I was watching the episode of Grey's Anatomy where Lexi and Meredith tell each other 5 things the other doesn't know about them already. This made me start to think about 5 things I knew about the people in my life. Some of the things were funny, some not so funny, some boring, some really unique! Then I wondered if I could come up with 5 things I knew about Makenzie already. This is what I came up with!
*1* This is Jimmy Needham. I do not know him and he does not know me or Makenzie. Then what does he have to do with anything you might ask! Well, Makenzie LOVES his music. I didn't believe babies really did this before, but now I am a believer. Whenever his song "Forgiven and Loved" comes on the radio or my iPod, Makenzie goes wild. His music has a little different sound to it and I don't know if that is what makes it so that Makenzie is attracted to it but whatever it is, its cute.
*2* At 30 weeks these are Makenzies favorite cereal. These are been a big craving of mine over the last 2 months actually. Its funny because I am pretty sure that Alex and I could live off of cereal if it was an option ;o) we both love it. Alex likes his cereal crunchy. So much so that he only pours a little bit in his bowl at a time so it doesn't get soggy. Myself on the other hand purposely waits for the cereal to soak up some of the milk before I start my breakfast or snack. We will see how she prefers her cereal in a few years, but I am sure she is going t be cereal eater!
*3* Makenzie is a couch potato already! She is most active when I am sitting down on the couch with my feel on the ottoman and am watching TV. Between the position of my body and the noise of the TV it is a sure fire way to get her to wiggle around. When I sit in this position her movement is different, its not sharp strong kicks, its more like gentle, long lasting, pushes on the walls of my belly.
*4* Every once in a while Makenzie gets too still for a little too long and I start to worry about her. The best way to fix this problem.....4 or 5 gulps of cold Dr. Pepper! It is rare that I drink a soda these days. I have been sticking to tea and water mostly, and gatorade also lately. So between the caffeine, the bite that Dr. Pepper has, and the bubbles this gets her doing jumping jacks real fast....she must like it!
*5* When Lola goes to sleep at night she curls up next my stomach, during the day Lola likes to nap on top of my belly, but anytime Lola gets on top of Makenzie, Makenzie starts kicking! I think it must be Makenzie's way of petting Lola from the womb!
