Eli’s 2 month checkup

Eli is almost 11 weeks old. So, we’re a little behind on the 2 month post.  His appointment was delayed a couple of weeks.

Eli is a complete joy!  He is a good sleeper and officially started sleeping through the night on a regular basis at 9 weeks.  He still takes 2 long naps a day and a short 3rd one.  He smiles all the time and is starting to “talk” a lot more.  He loves it when I say “mama” to him over and over – in my goofy baby-speak voice of course! 

I didn’t realize it, but I call Eli “sweet boy” all the time.  Jake has picked up on that and will lean over and whisper “hey, sweet boy!”  **melt my heart**

As of 10-1/2 weeks, Eli weighs 13 pounds and is 22.5” long.

With the weather being so warm, we decided to head down to the lake last weekend.  Jake LOVED being on the boat and kept asking Greg to “go faster!”  Greg’s parents stayed Friday night and Saturday, so Greg and I had a date night and had some free time without the boys on Saturday.  It was so nice to just layout on the boat and sleep!  ha!

We also took Jake to his first crawfish boil this weekend.  Jake didn’t partake in the crawfish eating, but he did fully enjoy the company and toys!  Our friends, The Moore’s, hosted the party and have the best yard for it. They live in a great neighborhood in Cabot with some pretty fun neighbors.  All the kids ran and played for hours!

It was “parking lot duty” again this Sunday, so Jake – being the good helper he is – helped Dad with his job at church.  I bought Jake a yellow shirt to wear like all the men that serve on this committee.  Jake takes candy to hand out to church goers and felt obligated this Sunday to YELL across the parking lot – “Hey, you want some treats??”
