6 weeks flies by

It's hard to believe how time flies! I can't believe that it's been 7 weeks since Jake and I were sitting on the couch wishing Elijah would come that day (Jake's b-day). It's been a few days over 6 weeks since he was born. What an amazing day that was! Unfortunately my mind is not quite in it's best state and I still find myself feeling a bit like Eeyore. It rained yesterday and I found that a bit fitting with my mood. Days that I have things to do make me feel a little better..looking forward to getting out I guess. Then the day comes and I find that Elijah's schedule gets messed up..in turn messing up mine as well not to mention exhausting me. Too much to carry and getting up to early to get ready not to mention the whole feeding thing I guess. This morning was saddening to realize that all of his bigger size booties no longer fit. He is on his last bunch of 1-2 diapers and will be in regular size 2 when the bunch is out. And..sigh..his 3 month clothes are slowly being boxed up. He's 13 pounds and 23.5 inches! I am trying to look up on things like his incredible smile and infectious laugh. I am looking forward to traveling to Michigan...okay not the actual travel part as it will be Elijah and I braving the airport by our lonesome on the way there..but I can't wait for our family and friends to meet him. I'm a little afraid of my response to coming home though as I always get a little down after trips and I will have a double whammy of having to go back to work that week. I'm afraid it may push me over the edge so I would definitely appreciate prayer. I don't have any pictures this time but hopefully next time. 'Til the next post!
