That smiling, adorable little baby face has been in our lives for a whole four months now and I can hardly believe it! Some days it feels like the hours just drag by but then when I stop and think about the grand scheme of things, time is actually moving at an alarmingly fast rate.… Continue reading FOUR Months Old!
I’m trying not to think about the fact that this little dude is an entire three months old as of Saturday because it kind of makes me want to cry. It’s unfair just how short the newborn stage is. One day you’re snuggling your itty, bitty brand new baby and then BAM; you’re struggling to… Continue reading Eli At Three Months Old!
Still loves to snuggle Has accepted being swaddled when he’s having a melt down Likes to ‘chug’ when he’s breastfeeding which leads to the cutest little noises Snores extremely loud just like his daddy and big brother No longer wakes up routinely at 11 pm to party Instead he usually falls asleep between 9 and… Continue reading Eli At Two Months Old
Well, we survived another month in our household! Little Eli turned TWO months old on Thursday! I know I’m going to keep continuously saying how I cannot believe how fast time flies but it’s completely true. Every week seems to go by faster and faster and before I realize it, we’ve gone through another month.… Continue reading TWO Months Old!
Friday was definitely a day I don’t wish to re-live. The day started out relatively normal with Eli waking up at his usual time of 5 am so I spent about an hour snuggling with him on the couch in hopes he would go back to sleep for me. I managed to about an hour… Continue reading A Day To Not Remember + Fall Fair Fun!
You beautiful, compassionate soul you! I cannot believe I was ever worried or concerned that you would be jealous or envious of the arrival of your new little brother. I actually find it hysterical that my brain would have even considered it as a possibility. You have been such a big helper to me these… Continue reading The Blessing That Is Nate
LOVES to be held 24/7 and sleeps much better when he’s cuddled into someone’s arms. Routinely likes to wake up around 11 pm to party regardless of if he JUST fell asleep shortly before. Still a night owl. He was always super active in the late evening/night when I was pregnant with him and it… Continue reading Eli At One Month Old
Like most young, developing girls in high school I was never comfortable or confident in my own body. I worked out both in and outside of school but because boys can be immature, mean, and in some ways cruel with their words, it all lead to unhealthy thoughts and ideals of what the ‘perfect body’… Continue reading Losing It
It’s been ONE WHOLE MONTH (!!!) since little Eli entered our world! The past month has been wonderfully blissful but also extremely overwhelming. Although I wouldn’t classify myself as a ‘rookie’ mom, I’m definitely finding that I’m still a novice when it comes to newborns. It’s been almost three years since we have had a… Continue reading ONE Month Old!
*I’ve been writing and re-writing this since Eli was about two weeks old! Every time I think it’s finished, I remember a new detail or memory from this day that I want to add in. It’s probably been my longest post to date but for me, it’s important to document every minute detail so when… Continue reading Eli’s Birth
