A Whole Lot of Nothing

Well, it's summer. I have always thought it would be really fun to be pregnant in the summer. Guess what...it's not all it's cracked up to be! I have been soooooooooo hot lately! We don't have central air in our house, so it gets pretty hot. We have slept on the couch the 2 onights because it's just too hot upstairs. It makes me very grateful that we switched Elijah's room to downstairs. I actually have to admit, though, that the couch seems more comfortable than our bed, so I have gotten some good sleep the last couple of nights!

I have less than 3 months until I have this baby. I will be in my 3rd trimester on Saturday! I can hardly believe I'm already at that point...it just doesn't seem real. I want to enjoy this time left with just one kid, but I am so anxious to meet our new little one! I feel very ready to add another member to our family!!! Plus, it's a little girl, and I won't be outnumbered anymore!

Elijah is such a boy. All I hear day in and day out is AJ and Elijah going back and forth with things like "ppppphhhhht...oh! You farted, Daddy!"..."pppppphhhhht...oh! You farted, Elijah!" I mean, seriously? I have to admit that it makes me laugh, though, and I do love having a boy. I never thought I would like it that much because boys are gross and I didn't want to deal with all the boy stuff that I had no idea how to handle, but it's been pretty easy! Elijah has changed my perspective on boys. Sure they're gross sometimes, but they are also so sweet to their mommy's. :) He can always make me laugh and he is always willing to help me out with whatever I need.

I have been working on Aliyah's room a lot lately. It's so cute. I love it. I love that it is mostly yellow, with some pink and white. It is bright and cheery and girly. She's gonna love her room! I have even gotten crafty! I made a ribbon mobile that turned out EXACTLY how I imagined it would! I was so excited! I didn't have instructions...I kinda just went with it, but it's perfect! Elijah walked into Ali's room after I hung it up and said "WOW! COOL!" So, I think it's a hit! :)

Well, I don't have much to blog about...just hadn't updated in a while. It's a rainy day here, which I'm actually enjoying a lot. I kinda needed a mellow day. It has seemed so busy around here lately! I hope you all have a great rest of the week/weekend!
