It's been a dispiriting day here, as I realize exactly how much fell apart while I was pregnant and on bed rest, so here's a reminder that something worthwhile has emerged from all of this chaos:

I would not in future knowingly schedule a baptism four days after birth (though nine days after the due date didn't seem that unreasonable at the time), but I'm glad we went ahead. The spiritual relief is worth the physical discomfort, and we spent the rest of the day recovering:
When we're not sleeping, I like to read and he likes to eat.

William needs a good deal of protecting from his loving siblings, but sometimes everyone can be peaceful and decorous at the same time. Sometimes it even happens in church...
...not often at home, though. But we're working on it, every day.

Gosh, I love that top picture!
Just think, it has got to be less chaotic now than it was packing up a house and moving halfway across the country like you did last time.
What a cutie. So at least 3 things well done - a baby! and a baptized one, at that! Plus, a kids-at-creche picture!
I'm trying to figure out how this nesting thing is supposed to work when I am (not on bedrest, so no kick coming, but) feeling so very unwieldy and never sure, once I get down, that I can get back up again. But seeing your (and Bearing's) baby pics keeps me focused on the end goal :) And at 34 weeks, I guess I better get moving on that nesting!
I like the reading/nursing picture. Yeah, that is my life right now.
Awesome pics!
How beautiful and wonderful. Thanks. Lois
He's so dang cute!
