Four-and-a-half months later

Let's see if I still remember how to do this.... This won't be a full catch-up type of post--though I do want to post some recent pics soon. Right now I'm at Pismo Beach hanging out in the hotel room with the sleeping baby while the bigger kiddos are on the beach with Dad and Grandma. I think this is my favorite part of going to the beach--watching the ocean and feeling the cool air while I read or write from the room. While I love the outdoors, I'm not big on the sand or the wind.

For some catch-up... I gave birth to Elijah Stephens Edwards the morning of March 11, as planned. The delivery went well--better for me than any of the other deliveries. I knew what to expect and I knew that people were praying for me. He was and continues to be healthy. At four months old, he is becoming more and more fun everyday: smiling, laughing, "talking", and even playing with toys. He's not sitting up like his two-day-younger cousin yet, but he does like to roll and scoot all over. Big brother and sister love him and (usually) are big helpers.

Like I said, I hope to post some more pics later.
