Eli's 3 Month Update

Well, Eli has aged to 3 months. Some recent developments are:

• At 9 weeks you turned a corner and started sleeping through the night. You go down at about 10 pm and sleep until 5 or 6 am.
• You smile and get really excited when someone talks to you. You kick really hard and start screaming and talking. I am convinced that you are really trying to talk.
• You weigh 15 lbs 14 oz....big boy.
• You are wearing 3-6 month clothing and still size 2 diapers, although I think you will be in size 3 soon because they are getting pretty snug.
• You are loosing your baby hair...fyi: your big brother did too and it grew back in as a dark blonde so I am anxious to see what color yours will be.
• Your eyes are still blue.
• You put ALOT of time and effort into getting your hands to do what you want them to do. You will concentrate for a solid 3 minutes with a stern look on your face until you get them where you want them.
• The ONLY crying you do is when you are hungry and are starting to get a little tired but even then you kind of chuckle a little like you are trying to avoid crying at ALL costs...too much work, I guess.
• You can hold your head up for about 2 minutes at a time and standing with weight on your feet for about 30-45 seconds.

Here are some pictures of you on April 20....

Eli, you are an absolute joy to be around. You are the happiest baby I have ever been around. I can't wait to see what the next month brings!
