it's just hot. so hot.

Back when summer began, it didn't seem so bad. Didn't seem so hot and uncomfortable. "Maybe it will stay this way," I thought. "Maybe I'll get lucky and won't get to that miserable point," I thought. Ha. Back in that day we stayed busy trying to come up with fun summer activities like...

making homemade ice cream in a bag...

making beach cupcakes...

and spending lots of time at the pool...

...and these days, I just can't bear the thought of being outside in the heat. Even in a pool. I have no energy. I feel uncomfortable all the time. But it is ALLLLLLLLLL good. One more month.

Oh little one...what is it about you growing in my belly that makes me so tired?
And yet makes me unable to sleep at night?
And makes my toes feel claustrophobic so that I have restless leg syndrome?
And makes me feel like I must have twizzlers in my mouth all the time?
Or maybe some cheddar jalepeno cheetos?
What is it that makes my hormones wacky and when I go camping I can't sleep all night because I'm afraid of bears. I've camped my whole life without a care in the world you see.
I do know that we cannot wait to meet you! Easton is so excited and reeeeally wants you to sleep in your "carriage" (cradle) in his room. I tell him that you'll wake up in the night crying. He says he'll get up and give you a toy or your "pinky" (binky) so that you'll be happy. He is so sweet and so excited. He is going to be a great big brother. I am so curious to see what you'll look like...how similar or different from Big E. We won't have to wait long....yay!!
