So Josh has left on a week long mission trip to Juarez, Mexico. We decided (since Elijah can't reach the refrigerator to fend for himself) that it's best if I stayed home with him while Josh is gone. That, and it's ridiculous to take a newborn on a mission trip... to Mexico... in June... or anytime, really.
Elijah missed dad SO much that he decided he was going to crawl to Mexico.
It will only take him 7 years...
Especially since he's not crawling yet.
That being said, we've been having a great time today! Elijah took a few naps, and cooed a lot to the ceiling fan, and to his favorite frog man. He was amazing and slept right through me vacuuming, and moving the furniture around so I could use the carpet cleaner Grandma Brecht let us borrow.
He even noticed that things were different when he woke up from his first nap. It kind of threw him off sitting on the couch with me in the middle of the room instead of where it usually is.
Then we went for a walk with our neighbor, Mary Jo. It was really nice to have some adult conversation and to get out of the house while our carpet was drying. It's been a long day, and we both miss Josh. Please pray that they have a safe trip! Thanks friends. And if you're reading this before Friday, (when Josh comes home) give me a call or send an e-mail because my husband can't do either this week. Hope to hear from you sometime!
