Hi Baby Elijah!
Every time I say or write your name, I think of an old song. I went to look it up and it is by Simon and Garfunkel - Cecilia. I am going to have to make up some new words for it so it can be about a little boy named Elijah.
Tomorrow is 23 weeks. WOOHOO. Just one more week and your dad and I will be breathing a sigh of relief. Not that we want you to come next week - heavens knows you have no where to sleep - but you will have a certifiable chance :) I think last night, you were wanting out. I took my pills with chocolate milk and you were a bit active - I even had your dad come up and feel you. I was trying to go to sleep - we had to be up to work at 6:30 this morning and you were moving all over. I figured that since you were up, I would let you listen to music. Ummm...wrong answer. I had to take the music away because you were rocking me to the core. I jumped a couple times at how large the movements were. I don't know if you were rotating around or what the deal was but it was exciting and scary all at the same time!
We had an exciting day yesterday. We went up to Methodist (where you will make your entrance into the world) and saw Itty Bitty Levi Anthony Wilson. Oh, wait, and his parents were there too. :) He was so darn cute and lovable. It really struck home with me that this will be you pretty soon! If you really did come in mid-December, that is only 3 months away. Little Levi could teach you a few things - he was quiet (No fussing) and he slept the whole time. Let's hope that is you too :) He did cause his mom some problems coming out and you better not. I don't want to be cut open so start getting ready to come out the natural way. And, naturally, with lots of drugs as God intended. If he didn't want all moms to have an epidural, he wouldn't have invented them.
It is interesting because I sense my mind shifting to "When" you come rather than "If" you come. Now, I am starting to get anxious about all we have to do to get ready for you. Honestly, most of the work falls on to your dad but he can't get started until I get all of my craft junk cleaned out of your room. Right now, I am pretty motivated but that changes daily. Last night, I was really motivated to work on the kitchen and bathrooms but ended up on the computer all night. Your mom needs some discipline.
So, that is about it for today. Talk to you later in the week!
