Flutter Bug

Hey Everyone! I have been feeling the baby flutter around since Friday. It's so neat to feel the baby actually moving inside of me. I think I'm feeling the baby a little earlier than the pregnancy books I've read said I would, but only by a week or so. It was so neat while we were at my Aunt's house in Easley, the family was gathered around the organ singing and the baby was fluttering. Then on the way home, it continued while Nate and I sang. I think we have a natural song bird on our hands!

Everything is going great. I seem to have a better appetite these days, as well as more energy. I've missed my first day of work today since I became pregnant. I woke up around 5 am with lower back pain that shoots down my left leg. It's been very painful, so I decided to take the day off to elevate my leg and stay off my feet. I plan on being back at work tomorrow.

Nathanael only has 2 more weeks of school! Then he's out until Feb. 1st! I'm so excited that we'll be spending more time together!

That's all for now!

Merry Christmas!

Ashley, Nathanael, and
Baby Waites
