Sleep

Sleep. It's a precious commodity around here these days. For the record, Deacon is getting plenty of it.

Daddy Time

Deacon and Daddy, enjoying some good snuggles.

Tomorrow his big siblings come home, after a few days at Grandma and Grandpa's house. Can't wait to see them!

Deacon Day 2

I love this little guy. I'm too tired to think of anything else to write at the moment.

Deacon Isaac, our precious third son, was born at home this afternoon at 4:25. My heart overflows as I gaze at all 9 lbs, 3.5 oz of him. He's absolutely perfect.

Bedtime

Perhaps she thinks that if she covers her face I am unable to see the obvious fact that she is lying in the middle of the hallway and is not in fact in her bed? Nope, sorry girly, I'm not that easy to fool.

Bailey

I'm sure this girl gets prettier every day.
We all went for breakfast at McDonald's this morning, which the kids were thrilled about. The food is a treat, and so is the playground.

I've been getting beaten up with migraine headaches for over a week now...could you please pray I'll be done with them for a while so I can get my strength back to have a baby? I'd very much appreciate it.

41 Weeks

I'm still waiting.
I don't feel as huge as I look in this picture...we don't have a full length mirror in our house, and I'm thankful for that right now because I have no idea how big I actually am. Until I see a photo of myself, that is.

Different boy, different playground, different day.
Not knowing when I will go into labour is making my days feel very strange - I don't want to make plans for anything, but if we just stay at home I'll go crazy. It's been a great time to just say 'yes' to the kids when they want to do fun stuff, like go explore new playgrounds. I just wish I had more energy! After an hour at the park, I just want to come home and nap.

Spiderman

The boys have been asking if we could go to the playground with "the big web" at the Forestry Farm, and today seemed like a good day for it. It was our first time playing there, and we'll definitely be back.

Blue Skies

It rained all day. Poured. And then the skies cleared just in time for date night. I had a lovely time with Clay - we went out for supper, then grabbed some Starbucks and went for a walk. Went for a waddle would be a more accurate description, as I am not moving anywhere quickly these days. I'm sure the baby has dropped (which I have never been sure of with any of our kids), and I am very curious to know when the big arrival will be!
