Tap thump kick

Hey baby Huntling,
As Jess's tummy has been getting bigger and bigger, you've been getting more and more active.  It's to the point that we can see your movements just by looking at her stomach.  You seem to have two especially active times:

1.  After dessert.  You seem to be just a vulnerable to a sugar rush as your Mommy.

2.  Bedtime.  I don't know if it is the change in position when lying down, or just the calming quiet of night, but you have a freakout dance party every night.  We've been playing the Hypnobirthing CDs at bedtimewhich sends your Mommy off to sleep in 0.5 seconds.  So there I am, lying on my side, the soothing mantras of Hypnobirthing washing through my half-asleep mind, when I feel you start drumming on my back as Mommy is pressed against me.  I don't know if I feel a hand, a foot, a knee, a head, or some other appendage not yet identified, but you are really thumping and poking my lumbar region.  And the most amazing part is, Jess is dead asleep through the whole thing.  So, you seem to be a pretty active little person, whoever you are, at least until your environment gets too small for you to wiggle anymore.  See you in less than two months!
