Joel went out for coffee with a friend tonight, and Elijah actually fell asleep at 9:00! (Usually he doesn't fall asleep until 10:30). So, I have some time to actually give some updates instead of just pictures.
Elijah is doing very well! He is such a great sleeper! People keep asking me if I'm totally exhausted, but I get more sleep now then I did when I was pregnant! He only wakes up once now, and even when he wakes up twice I still feel like I have had a full nights rest.
As I'm sure you can tell from the pictures, he is also a great eater. Haha. He is getting quite the belly! I stopped giving him formula for a little while, and unfortunately he doesn't really want it now when I try to give it to him. Bummer. It was my easy way to get a babysitter. Oh well, we'll keep trying. I guess he only wants the good stuff. It's so stinkin expensive anyway. We figured it is $.50 an ounce, so $2-3 a bottle!! Joel says we shouldn't buy food for both me AND the baby, that all we have to do is just feed me. I guess he's right!
We have fun during the day...he's so happy! I'm loving that he smiles all the time, and responds to my voice. He LOVES his mobile! Sometimes I just put him in his crib and he just kicks and smiles as he watches it go around. So cute! So there's a little Elijah update for ya!
Joel is keeping very busy with work. It's getting hotter here, so he comes home pretty tired after baking in the sun on a hot roof! Tomorrow he is looking forward to working on our own home. We have lots of odds and ends to finish up from when we added on the baby room. I love weekends...I'm hoping to get to sleep in a bit tomorrow!
