Daddy Day Care Post #1

0815-I am dragged from the bed by Elijah. He wants, in the following order, mom, cereal, water, bikes, and "go-go-go-fast-daddy". We proceed to watch the following video 5 times.

0840-Breakfast is completed. The table and floor are cleaned. A debate ensues over which dog is softer: Mona or Buckley? Then he asks "Fix Car Please". Nuff said. We are off to fix/clean the car in our PJs.

Dancing and Baby

We went to get ice cream after dinner tonight. Elijah was his best self, asking please for angus (ice cream), telling the workers thank you multiple times, and dancing for the crowd. He got off his chair to dance, he did some break dancing, some jumps, some side stepping and some butt shaking (thank you papa). The customers and workers all loved him! I think he did it for all the pretty ladies there!
I had an ultrasound today. Baby is getting big, like measuring over a week ahead. Baby also has lots of hair, a good looking heart but wouldn't show us it's face and kept it's legs crossed the whole time (so no knowing the sex). Our section is scheduled for May 12th at 7:30 am! It is kind of strange to know the exact time and day we are having a baby.

Poor Elijah has another cold. He has been sick four times in four months. So far this cold isn't too bad but he is so grumpy. He reminds me of my brothers!! Poor Sam! He is working so hard for us and he is so tired. He needs a good break from school and work. He is almost done with his second semester, just a few more weeks and he is there. He won't have much of a break though because the baby is coming on his week off.
We are still looking at houses. I think the houses are getting nicer and we even saw one we might bid on. I want a house but if someone accepts our offer then we will be moving about the time the baby comes. I won't be much help moving after a c-section.
I am feeling pregnant! As the picture shows I am also looking very pregnant! I still feel good but the running as turned into a fast walk!

Elijah really liked dying eggs!! He made a big mess!

He works too hard.

She's Hefty! 35 weeks.

Elijah has not once worn his helmet and liked it. Until Sam had a brilliant idea and got him a McQueen helmet. Not only did he want to ride it while riding his bike but he also wore it while playing at the park. We did tell him it was a moto helmet and it makes him go faster but whatever works right!



This is Elijah helping me clean.
Elijah has named the baby Baby McQueen. Seems gender neutral to me.
