Sorry it's been a while since we've posted. Things have been busier around here! Eli was 2 months on the 10th. At his 2 month check up (the 12th) he was 13 lbs, 2 oz., 23.5 inches and his head was 15.5 inches. Apparently I still have a little case of baby brain, because I forgot to ask where that puts him on the charts officially, but from what I can tell, he's about in the 95th percentile for his weight for a full term baby.... since we all know he was a bit early, I imagine that makes him a pretty big boy as far as growth charts go!
Eli is smiling and giggling quite a bit now. He can hold up his head, and extends his legs putting all of his weight on them... we just need to keep him from falling over ;-) He's a pretty strong boy...Daddy is of course very proud! We even got him a new bouncer to play on, which he seems to enjoy so far! Eli is still up about every three hours, but has started sleeping a longer stretch at the beginning of the night, usually about 5 hours. He is still a great baby, and is rarely fussy with the exception of the day of his checkup following vaccinations... the poor little guy cried for several hours that night.
We just said goodbye to Auntie Lizzy, Uncle Mike and Uncle Jay. They were here for a week and we all had a great time. We made it up to Yellowstone for a couple of days. Didn't get to see all of the park due to road closures but saw most of the southern loop. It was Uncle Jay's first trip... and Eli's of course! We saw Old Faithful, Upper and Lower Falls, and paid a visit to the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center in West Yellowstone. Pictures below!
Nonni can't stay away and will be making another trip to visit on Nov. 9th for a few days.... She's missing her little snuggler. Eli and I will be making the trip to Vermont in January, but that's apparently too long to wait! We'll be excited to see her again.
Love to all!
