A little sunshine

Normally Brayden and I get out for a nice long walk most days of the week. Yesterday, though, it was so beautiful out that I couldnt resist trying to fit into the old tankini and laying out for a bit (and before you ask...pictures will NOT be included with this post!). In case you were wondering, I'm proud to report that it fit with the exception of it no longer staying down over my stomach. So at any rate, I did the right thing and took some pillows out there to prop myself up with and got comfy...and then the boxing match began. For some reason my little boy didnt like laying out very much. I would have thought that he would have enjoyed the warm sun on him. It wasnt too warm and he had all the space he could want, but he wasnt having any part of it. So I did what any good mother would do. I kept laying there til I was good and ready to go in!!! Now for those of you who know me well, you know it wouldnt matter how long I layed out...I wont tan. But it was just SO nice out!

When Luke came home early and found me still in the bathing suit (inside at this point), after looking really suprised and then having a giggle at my belly in a tankini, I relayed the laying out story to him. Then my husband, in all his wisdom, brought up a very good point. Baby can see light through my belly at this point in my pregnancy. If we shine a light on my belly, the little guy will squirm around to get away from the light. SO...given that I was laying out in the brightest part of the day...and on my back for much of it...my little guy had a front row seat to the brightest light he's ever seen. Upon reflection I see that I would probably be pretty mad, too! But it was just SO nice out!
