A delicious blend of dark roasted thoughts, with a hint of sugar and spice.

These Are the Days of Elijah

Yes, it happened! June 18th, I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy: 8 pounds 5 ounces, 22 1/4 inches long, whom we named Elijah! He's so cute! (Seriously.) I believe I'm going to start a new blog with all his beautifulness on it.

However, I am currently sitting on the couch, by myself (except, of course, for the child), as my husband is out with the youth group. I don't like to be alone, and if I have to be alone, sometimes it's nice just to watch some TV, but the TV is in the basement and it's dark down there. Dark, and cold. I don't really want to sit in the dark, cold basement, by myself. But, the alternative is to sit here and stare at the wall, while my child sleeps. Not the worst thing I could be doing, that's for sure, but I have this thirst to be entertained a little bit.

Life has changed. That's for sure. My body is very different. My family is different. My brain is different. And now I'm responsible for a little bean for the rest of my life! It's pretty amazing. I'm so thankful for him. I love him like crazy, and actually could probably entertain myself for hours just by watching his facial expressions. They're so cute.

So, these are the days of Elijah. We're so glad he's here.

If you ever need someone to hang out with on Wednesdays...I'm not sure if I'd always be able to, but give me a call if you get really lonely and I'll see if I can come over!!!
