Valentina Loves the Nighttime

She moves differently from day to night.  In the day, she moves slowly, as if she is simply dragging one arm or leg to another position.  At night, it is different.  She kicks, shakes, quivers, rolls, and uses as much strength as she can to move around.  It happens especially when Salvatore is close and I figure she can hear his voice.  So now, my days and nights are starting to get screwy.  I feel more tired during the day and I get surges of energy at night and it is VERY DIFFICULT for me to sleep more than 3 or 4 hours a night.  But I am happy.  As I type, Benedict is repeatedly licking my knee and David and Salvatore are cuddled on the couch together watching a Spanish nature show.

  2. Audrey did the same thing, but she sleeps fine at night, so it may change. Does Valentina get the hiccups?

  3. I absolutely LOVE her response to Salvatore's voice! It's brother-sister bonding time!
