Eli 10 weeks.

 

I love dressing up my little man just as much as I did Micali. These are pics of him before the Dr. and after we got home before daddy took his bandaids off for him. Taking the bandaids off made him more mad than the shots did.

He weighed in at 15 and a half pounds. He is 24 inches and evidently has a big head but not sure exactly how big that was.

Update....

Wow! I have posted a lot today. It just so happens that when I plugged in the camera today to update after our spring break we had 193 pictures on there so sorting through them and picking out our favorites is tough. I still have a few more to go but my time at the computer is almost over. (Eli is starting to wake up as I am typing) We had a nice Spring Break. We moved to a new house. It is just around the block from where we were living but this house has a basement which gives us more space. I was surprised that I actually felt sad to move from our other home as it was just a little one. But, as I walked through the house finishing up the last minute packing I remembered all the work we had put into it, all the fun times, and now that we are in a new house I have a whole list of things I miss about the old one. So here are some pros and cons with moving:
Things I miss:
A tall showerhead so the water just pours over you and you don't have to duck to get your hair wet.
A microwave with a sound OFF option. It was much easier to sneak little treats without it beeping when it was finished.
My new appliances.
My deep sink. (it was my birthday present)
My garage door opener. (my christmas present)

Things I enjoy at my new home:
Open Kitchen so I can see Micali playing while I am working on dinner.
The office in the basement so the mess stays down there. :)
The big windows and the sun shining in.
All the extra space.

Well I had a few more thoughts but they have all left now that both children are in need of my attention.
Thats all for now!

Enjoying Grandma's cookies............

AMAZING!

 


I love this picture. The body is amazing to me, it starts out so small and helpless and ends up being big and helpful. I know grandpa's hands have been used to do a lot of good and help many many people. I hope Eli can follow in his grandpa's example.

Elijah Two Months.

This boy is getting so big. He is such a little cuddle bug. I know I wrote on here about 3 weeks ago that I would be getting my own bed. Well it still hasn't happened yet. He has been sick, we moved to a new house, and maybe I could just blame it on the fact that I would miss him if he was across the hall. But, I really think this weekend it is going to happen.....I have enjoyed while it lasted!

CHEESE PLEEASE!!

 

 

 

 

Micali just loves cheese. She was so excited when she climbed up to the table and found a whole plate of shredded cheese just waiting for her. We let her have a little fun and take a few handfuls. Oh the delight on her face. The greatest part was her saying "CHEESE" as I got out the camera and she took her first bite!

Easter Morning

Do we look alike?

 
 

Here is Eli and Micali at 7 weeks. Do you think they look alike?

Seven Weeks old.

Micali before her haircut.

This haircut took a lot longer than one might think. She started out sitting in front of the mirror. That lastest only a few cuts and then she went to dad's lap. That didn't work at all until we brought in the goldfish. After she had all the goldfish she wanted we put her in the bath to play with her toys. Even after all these distractions the haircut is still not complete so the pictures of her new style will be coming. You can kind of see that it is shorter in the pictures with her pjs on. If I would have known how hard it would have been to cut her hair the mullet could have stayed!
