(Having fun with my girls....Photo booth is a family favorite)
Having Eli has been like having a 1st child all over again.
How often should he nurse...what should he be eating...is he eating enough...
The funniest thing is that for that past 8 months of his life we have been putting him to bed at 11...sometimes not really getting him till 1 am...ahhh. then..all of a sudden..we put him down at 8:30 and BAM! It's his magical bedtime. Then I remembered that Mak was totally the same way...it was like we forgot how to read the signs!!!! We finally won! Yay!
Eli is now 9 1/2 months old! It has gone so fast. He is crawling and pulling himself up on everything. I think it goes so fast because I'm also very busy with the girls...homework..girl drama...church stuff...ect. I am enjoying life a lot more now too. I'm a little bummed how fast everyone is getting grown up :( stop growing!! stop it! But I'm feeling much better about the routine of things! Family is an amazing part of life. I couldn't imagine our family without Eli...when just 18 months ago he was only known by God! Amazing how He interrupts our lives in the most magnificent ways!
I'm looking forward to summer...unscheduled time with the kids. No wake up time...no homework time...relaxed bedtime. Here's to approaching summer ;)
