Eli is One Month Old!

Its hard to believe that Eli has been with us for one month already!  He weighs 8 lbs, 11 oz, so he's almost exactly a pound above birth weight.  Like Lily, he is considered a petite baby!  He is 21 inches long, so he's grown a bit that way too.  He is giving us 4-5 hour stretches of sleep at night.  As long as he nurses around 10 pm or so, we only wake up once during the night.  Yay!

Eli loves:

**nice, long naps

**reading books with Lily

**laying on his playmat

**hanging in the man cave with Dad

 

Getting good at tummy time!

First nap in his crib...it didn't last long!

Eli Meets His Great-Grandparents

Eli is so lucky to have four great-grandparents to love on him!  He hasn't met Grandma Sacra in Virginia yet, but he has been able to meet my grandparents and Stro's grandpa.  Here are a few pictures:
