Ok – I know some of you thought….wait a minute…Bean can’t play yet can he?  He can!  He and I have been playing for a couple of weeks now.  I recently read in one of my many pregnancy and parenting books that you should begin to massage your belly and eventually your baby inside the womb so that he is used to touch and specifically yours when he arrives.  I have recently been able to tell where his back, butt and head are located so anytime I can feel one of them I begin to massage.  There have been many times that as I massage his little Beansized butt that he snuggles back against my hand.  It is the sweetest thing!  I assumed it was an accident but I have since read more about how your baby will “play” with you while in the womb.  Well since then its all I do.  We play all day long!  It is a great way to pass time at the grocery store, at a traffic light and during the night when it is impossible to sleep!  But today we went on a real play date!  I have been looking for other moms to connect with as soon I will be at home all alone with my little buddy and will want to introduce him to other playmates.  I figured it would be best to do some interviewing without him so he doesn’t have to worry about rejecting others.  So today we went and visited the Monarch program with a group from Meetup.com.  We had a blast!  Even though it was pretty muggy the butterflies were beautiful and Bean fluttered right along with them.
