Bag Tags

A friend of mine got Eli the CUTEST bag tags when he was born and she passed on the website info (thanks Jamie!) :) Please visit http://www.polkadachs.com/ and check out all the great designs! The owner (also named Jamie) lives here is Dallas and she is so nice and easy to work with. The bag tags make great gifts for baby showers and are a great price so check out the website! I'll keep a link on my side bar as well. :)

Smile for the Camera!!

We took Eli to get his picture taken today. I'm saying they are his 6 month pictures even though he will be 7 months next week! They turned out GREAT!!!! Here are a few....well, mabye more than a few of our favorites. :)

Videos!

Our little boy is growing up! He is trying to hard to crawl! In this first video, it is pretty late and he is getting fussy, but still strying to get to his toys! :) The last video is of Eli playing with Daddy. It was his first time in a high chair at a restaurant. Such a big boy!

Silly Boys

Once upon a time, my wonderful husband dreamed of having a big flat screen tv. He would always to sit on the floor really close to the tv when watching sports. The complaint was that he could never see the score from far away. We wanted to get one before Eli was born so last March we finally got one...just in time for March Madness.

So why did I come home a few weeks ago to this...
(Yes, those are my dining room chairs in the living room.)

6 Month Eli!

Ok, so this post is REALLY late. Eli turned 6 months old on January 18th! We are having SO much fun with him! He talks to us all the time and is fascinated by Pita (the dog.) He loves to grab her ears, and she doesn't mind at all! He sits up pretty well on his own...at least until he dives for a toy! :) He is rolling all over the place and starting to get up on his knees to scoot a few inches. He hasn't quite put together that if he uses his hands and arms along with his knees he could really get moving. He usually sleeps from about 8:30 pm to 6:00 am, which we are loving!! Every once in a while he wakes up crying/whining in the middle of the night, but if we turn his mobile on he usually goes right back to sleep. At his six month appt. the doctor said we are right on track with him having 4 bottles and 3 meals a day. He is driving us crazy by trying to turn over (toward the wall) EVERY TIME we change his diaper or clothes. It often takes two of us just to get the job done with our little wiggle worm. Eli was sick for the first time this past month with Bronchiolitis. We had to give him breathing treatments every couple of hours...definitely not his favorite thing since he screamed every time, but we made it through! Daddy's favorite new thing that Eli does is blowing raspberries, which he does often and makes a mess when doing it while eating. :)

6 Month Stats:

Height - 28 1/2 in. - 93%

Weight - 20 lbs. 8 oz. - 97%

Our Boy

My wonderful husband got me an AMAZING camera for Christmas. I LOVE it!! It takes such great pictures and has some really cool features. I've been playing with it a lot so I know I'm drive him crazy with all the pictures I've been taking (I'm kind of a picture freak!) Here are just a few of my favorite subject!

Christmas

We had a wonderful (and busy) Christmas! We were very lucky that we didn't have to travel this year. We had a great morning with just me, Stephen and Eli. Stephen's family came over later that morning and my family got here that night. It was great having everyone at our house and even though Eli didn't realize what was going on, he enjoyed seeing his grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins! We had such fun with our families! Here are pics from the past few days!
