Feeling Little Ariel's movement

Ariel is finally 5 months old in my womb. 4 more months later, she'll be out to meet the beautiful world. so excited. can't wait to meet her.

i can feel that she is moving a lot in the womb lately. the feeling is quite amazing but i do not know how to describe it. a friend mentioned that she may be tying ribbons with the umbilical cord. cannot imagine her doing that cos her fingers are still so small!!

we had placed orders for her cot and car seat over the weekend from baby hypermart, and also bought more clothes for her. (yeah, i know it is still a bit early). i do not want to beat the crowd and squeeze with people when my tummy gets bigger. i had been eyeing the cot that we bought for quite sometime. it has 4 adjustable levels and can be converted to a toddler bed. the original price was S$299 (include the bedding set and some toys). we did not want the toys, so the sales person said will deduct S$20 if we do not want the toys. however we upgraded the bedding set to cotton type, which will need a top-up of 30 bucks. in the end, the salesperson still charge us for S$299. quite nice of her. she also gave us discount for the car seat!

i have been reading stories to little Ariel every other night (at the same time to her father.. duhz). i bought a storybook some time ago which is a compilation of stories of the disney princesses. i am going to finish all the stories soon, have to start all over again. hopefully she will not get bored though. other than reading stories, i have been singing nursery rhymes. this is what they call "tai jiao", translated as "womb teaching". however i only know Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Ba Ba Black Sheep. so she can only listen to these 2. hubby has also been playing instrumental music CD every morning/night. the first few times when the music is played, i can feel her movements. nowadays i think she got bored with them.

now everyday when i open my wardrobe to take my clothes out, i will admire her little clothes. they are just so cute. everything is so small. really wonder how she'll look like.
