Gulfport Vacation

Our first vacation as a family of four was a simple one to Gulfport, MS.  We rented an air b&b, played at a splash pad, went to a museum, and had a great time together!  It was the perfect first vacation with a new baby- simple, but lots of fun!

At dinner at Shaggy's

This park with swings, slides, and a splash pad was walking distance from our house.

We went to the cutest children's museum there!

Pretending to be a vet!

Climbing!

Safari through Africa!

This area was like a news station set...so cute!

Worn out, which means vacation was a success!

 

 

 

Eli is Four Months Old!

Eli is now four months old!  He has really developed a personality this month and fits in perfectly with our family.  He weighs 14 pounds and is 24 inches long.  He has the best little thigh and wrist rolls!  He has rolled over a couple of times on his own, in both directions, but hasn't started doing it consistently yet.  He still sleeps fairly well, but now hates bathtime!  His naps are pretty short right now, so I'm hoping when he condenses down to two per day that they lengthen a little bit.  This month, he experienced his first vacation and his first trip to the library.  He has started grabbing toys and held his bottle on his own today!

This month, Eli loves:

**watching everything Lily does!

**smiling, laughing, and cooing

**hanging onto his turtle lovey

**sitting in his new chair

 

Lily jumped in the photo shoot!

Eli's Newborn Pictures

I've had these for a while, but I'm just now getting around to posting!  We love these pictures by our photographer Leslie Pendleton.  She got some really great shots of Eli, the two babes, the whole family, and his room!

Blue blanket, booties, and hat made by his Mimi

Woodland blanket made by his GiGi

 

 

This artwork for Eli was painted by Lily and was hanging in the living room :)
