As you can see in my Easter photos, Elijah adores being outside. It is the new love of his life. And it is a good match because sunshine does wonders for him. Vitamin D works some sort of magic, especially after a long winter. When he is able to spend time outside, he is a much happier little person and he sleeps better and is just overall more enjoyable to be around (not that he is ever not enjoyable to be around).
My pregnancy and bed rest are going fine. Not much has changed, which is a good thing. Every once in a while I will have a scary day of contractions, but a restful night of sleep always gets things back under control. One thing that has been annoying is that I have become clumsy. In the past two weeks I have had two refrigerator catastrophes. The first time I knocked a jar of jelly out of the fridge and the shattered glass flew EVERYWHERE. Ugh. The second time I knocked an entire shelf off of the door of the fridge. The only thing that broke was a jar of vinegar, which we could smell for days. Both times after my disasters, Dan walked around the corner and said, "ELIJAH!" Nope, not Elijah, just clumsy, pregnant ME! :)
As my delivery date gets closer, the more anxious I find myself getting. There is a lot to think about even though I can't do anything about any of it. It's a little bit strange to be having "normal" pregnancy worries/anxieties this time. We had such heavy heavy things to mull over last time, so these normal worries are pretty new and different for me.
Our wonderful friends, the Rollers, sent such a sweet sweet care package in the mail for us. I cannot wait to show you what Kathy made for Elijah!! Photo to come soon!

Megan, just hang in there for a little while and you'll be fine.
Love all those pictures of your adorable little man.
Have a nice week!
I had the 'clumsies" with all three pregnancies and for me it was always (and oddly) a brand new bottle of balsamic vinegar which smelled nice for a few minutes and then not so much after that.....you are just attracting more gravity-it is a good thing!
I wasn't such a clumsy pregnant woman as a forgetful one. I had serious cases of "gestational alzheimer's" with both girls! The most memorable was when I couldn't get rid of a headache. We were worried because I had blood pressure issues & headaches were a common sign of it rising. So that evening when I laid down I realized that I still hadn't taken my glasses off... then it hit me. I had worn my glasses on top of my contacts all day! Cured the headache problem right away! LoL! Hope your clumsies go away soon!
Those photos are great! Thanks for sharing!
I was clumsy....and forgetful!! What a combination!!
I can't wait to see what Kathy made! She is so creative!!
Glad that things are going well. Only 10 more weeks!!
