3 months

Eli was 3 months old yesterday! Hard to believe. He will be crawling before I know it. Talk about busy! It's been so much fun this last month with Eli starting to show his little personality. He is quite the talker and so sweet. He is always smiling and just loves to coo back and forth with anyone willing to! I could do it all day (if I wasn't chasing someone else around!) :) We are having a lot of fun this summer; trying to stay cool since James loves to be outside at all hours!

Here is what Eli is up to:

*Wearing 3 month, some 3-6 month clothes

*Eating every 2-3 hours

*Sleeping through the night! The past week he has been going to bed around 9:00 and sleeping til 6:00! It's been awesome. Today he slept til 7:15. He is a great sleeper! He is taking 4 naps during the day. Usually a pretty long one in the afternoon while James is sleeping (the only time he gets peace and quiet!) I just let him lay on me while I am on the computer. It's our time together alone. I love it :)

*Doing really well with tummy time. He's holding himself up on his arms and looking all around. He'll lay like that for about 10-15 minutes before he's tired. He hasn't rolled over again (he did a couple times at like 6 weeks but hasn't since). But I would think that will be any day now!

*He loves his play mat. Just laughs and coos at the animals hanging in front of him.

*Loves bath time and the hairdryer, just like James did

*Likes to be outside, but can get overstimulated pretty easily and gets a little worked up if he's tired

*Snores when he sleeps

*Can sit assisted, doing a pretty good job of holding his head up.

*Loves to watch James play. He laughs and just watches him moving all around.



We are excited for the 4th of July tomorrow. We are having our family and our lifegroup over. It should be a good time. Plus Mike is taking off the rest of the week! We will have some great family time. Looking forward to it! Happy 4th of July!!
