Can't Wait!!!

Dear Elijah, 

Ok, so we are pretty much just waiting on you kiddo. We are so excited and keep saying that we can't wait to hold you. I know I've been carrying you in my tummy, but I'm ready to see you and hold you in my arms :) So is your daddy! These last few weeks are going to be torture, knowing that it's so close to you being here! Plus the fact that I can't sleep, my back hurts, and I can't put on my own socks and shoes... Haha... We keep working on your room, and setting up fun stuff. Thank God I have your daddy to install shelves, build changing tables, and move heavy things back and forth. Gosh he does a lot! He is always going to the store, picking up my favorite treats, making me healthy smoothies, holding me when I need it, Rubbing my back, scratching my head to make me fall asleep, laughing at me when I cry over ridiculous things, and taking me out for nice walks. What a guy. I thank Jesus every day for giving me such a great husband. Ok, so I cry A LOT these days, and yes sometimes I do cry over the most trivial things, but last night was my favorite moment ever! I walked into the living room while your daddy was watching "American Idol," which is a singing show that we like to watch together. I was making soup and listening to what was going on. When I walked into the living room to see the T.V., I looked over at your dad and he was all teared up! LOL... He was touched by one of the contestants stories, and it made him tear up. I started laughing so hard, but told him that he made my night. He has such a sweet heart :) He's a tough guy, but not made of stone! I appreciate that so much! 

He gets to do the hard stuff ;)

and I get to do the fun stuff :)
