One Month Already?!?!?

One Month!
11 pounds 1 ounce
22 inches!


Oh Eli...where has the time gone? I never believed it when other parents said it went by fast...but it does! It's been a challenge but such a joy, we're learning to trust our insticts and realize we know you better than anyone!
We weathered one goopy eye which was just a blocked tear duct and we're now dealing with reflux. Last week we couldn't figure out why you were stuffy and spitting up so frequently and why our normally good sleeper had disappeared, so we took a trip to the doctor who suggested we switch your formula...that worked for a while until you got constipated. I never thought I would be so thankful to see poop :) We ended up putting you on medication which will hopefully make you feel better and eating a little less painful until you grow out of this.
You're a very relaxed and happy baby. You love looking at the ceiling fan and being held so you can lift your head off our shoulders and look at us. Reading is one of your favorite things to do, which makes mommy very happy! Daddy likes to tell you about all of the things you're going to do together when you get bigger. If you ask me, it sounds like he's preparing you for chores ;-)
You're getting so big already and part of me wants to say SLOW down...but more of me is excited to hear to coo more and see your personality continue to develop.
Love you sweet baby, can't believe you've been here a month already!
