Distracted...

Dear Elijah,
So your dad and I have been trying to unpack and get settled into the new place these past few days, but there is too much fun to be had!!! We have been in cold weather, and rain for the past few months and when we see sun, we get a little too excited! So our plans have been, unpack in the evenings, and have fun during the day! We are trying to experience the things we really missed doing here together before your daddy goes back to work :) It has been an amazing past few days! We keep seeing things that get us excited about having you around! Like, we can't wait to take you to the beach, the fountains, the parks and all the fun things there are to do around here. By the way, you tasted your first busy bee sandwich today in the womb! Hope you liked it :) I sure did! We also talked about getting a beach umbrella to protect you from the sun when we go. We can't wait to start making your own baby food and taking you on picnics with us! We are excited to be by our families again so that you will be able to meet everyone and have lots of loving people around you. (This just in...) As I am sitting here typing out this letter to you, your daddy says, "So how are we going to introduce Elijah to fish, since you don't like it?" Hahahaha... You see Eli, we talk about you a lot... He is already worried you won't like fish... I told him that I will not force my dislikes on you. You and your daddy can eat all the sea food you want. I will get a salad... Well, today we sat in the sun outside of Starbucks reading relationship books. It made me so happy to see your daddy sitting there by my side reading, smiling, laughing, and sharing with me what he was learning. I was reading "For Men Only" and he was reading "For Women Only." We switched because we wanted to underline and write notes in each others books before we read them the correct way. If that makes sense. We are learning a lot though, and it's nice to know that although we will never be perfect, we care enough about each other to take time together to work on us and our relationship. This will come in handy especially when we welcome you into our small growing family :) We want you to feel always loved and appreciated, and hope that we can be good examples.  Love you cute face! You really are the cutest thing ever. The way you move inside my tummy tells me so much about you. You are a little go getter. Hahaha, always on the move, and always entertaining. Haha. Love ya :)
Your dad very focused on underlining something he would like me to know! Haha
