Aren't pregnancy dreams strange? I've had some bizzare ones this time around.. 
I tell Mike about them, and he's never quite sure what to say. :LOL I think I enjoy freaking him out a bit too much.
Last night, I went through Eli's winter clothes and folded them up; we're going to need to get a few rubbermaid boxes for storage. At any rate, I'm looking through and realizing that he didn't wear any of the 18 month size pants except for one pair that had belt-loops; all the rest were too big and slid off his non-existant hips, even with the giant cloth diapers!
Next time I buy clearance stuff (where I bought all of his winter clothing for this year last March/April; garage sale prices for new stuff!) I'm going with my instincts. I wanted to buy everything in 12 month size, but it just seemed silly to me so I bought some 12's and mostly 18's. Oh well, he'll wear them next year! :LOL
Eli's summer clothing ranges from 3-6 months to 12 months. I bought one t-shirt in a 2T last year because it was just too cute to resist (The Very Lonely Firefly on a turquoise shirt.
) but everything else he has in that size is a hand-me-down from his cousin (a boy almost exactly one year older than Eli). The boys look good in entirely different colors; Eli's got very neutral colored skin, medium-dark brown hair with seriously red stripes in it. My nephew has very warm skin about two shades darker than Eli's and a huge mop of warm, dark golden blonde curls (yes, he's a doll). Eli's eyes are cool and blue-green, nephew's eyes are such a dark shade of warm brown... at any rate, the nephew looks really cute in shades of olive, warm oranges & golds, khaki, and mustard yellow. Those colors make poor Eli look like he's got some kind of terminal disease. :LOL Eli looks best in shades of red, cool blues like turquoise, and watery greens which would make his cousin look like a corpse that's been left in the sun. 
So some of the hand-me-downs, while cute, look absolutely ridiculous on Eli so he only wears them as playclothes or to sleep at night. Why couldn't they have been the same color so that Eli doesn't have to look silly in stuff that looked so cute on his cousin?!
So NewBean is a girl. I'm hoping there's some cute girl clearance hiding at the mall somewhere! :LOL As soon as that tax refund comes, and some of our other bills are paid off, I'm going shopping! :LOL

, but I'm glad that my subconscious isn't scared of having the baby.
Lovely. DH bought me some witch hazel and little cotton make-up pads and so far those seem to be helping.
I am a fat person, and it's one of the things we do. I'm actually thrilled because I feel skinny! How many people can weigh over 200 pounds at 5'1", and be nearly 8 months pregnant and say that? :LOL I look fabulous, and I feel wonderful. This could be so much worse! :LOL

He says it's hot. I don't feel hot, I finally feel comfortable. This morning, though, I woke up next to a sweaty pile of Eli. :LOL He's definately Daddy's boy that way; he was warm all night because I was sleeping under a comforter. :LOL 
: At any rate, we need it in here because our computer has been overheating really quickly, so I'm cold as I type. Eli and Mike are both half naked and very comfortable. 
: I guess I'm outvoted! :LOL
