We had snow today! And it looks like it will stick. When I was a kid I always remember trick or treating with my costume all hidden underneath a snowsuit. Anyway, we enjoyed the fresh whiteness… The darkness can start getting to you this time of year, so the white blanket really helps distribute the light… When I showed PJ the snow out the window he looked for awhile and then said, “It’s like Winnie the Pooh, Momma.” And then he said, “It’s a blustery day.”

We are doing OK. Sleep is a big issue. PJ got pretty sick (again! I guess these are all new local bugs for him) the last couple of days, awake off and on all night for a couple of nights, throwing up, 102+ temperatures… Doc in a box says it’s “just a virus”. I am praying we get all this spotty sleeping behind us soon! There will be enough of that when Baby Z comes!

Had another midwife appointment yesterday. Things look good. We are now in uncharted territory – 36 weeks is farther than I got with PJ! Hooray! PJ did a little head-bob dance to the monitor when we listened to the baby’s heartbeat. Friends are asking if it was worth it to disrupt our lives so much and come up to have this baby with the midwives. I have to say I really have no idea – we are just trying to obey what we thought God was telling us. It is good for me to remember that – that the results are up to God. He knows all the angles I’ll never see!
