Thumb Sucker

What a funny boy.

I don't think that is 

how the jump a roo works.

Reid and I had fun this morning,

snuggling on the couch,

watching Curious George.

I love his eyes.

Day 216

Day 215-{7 months old}

Dear Eli,

You are turning into quite the fun baby! You have grown so much this month, both physically and in how you interact with the world around you. You have learned how to shake your head “no” and LOVE to do this in our car seat and highchair. You are getting so close to crawling and are very efficient at pushing yourself backwards and spinning in circles. It’s really fun to watch you and Reid interact. Reid gets sad when it is time for you to eat one last time before bed, because he knows that he can’t play with you anymore. You say Mama and laugh. You are a snuggle bug (Mama loves that about you). You are SWEET!

You love Sophie the Giraffe and chew on her quite vigorously. The jump a roo is still your favorite place to hang out. :) You also like stuffed animals and blankets.

You are a pretty laid back, easy going, happy, chill and funny baby. We love that you make us laugh.....All of the time. 

Love always,

Mama 

Brothers.

Reid-{20 months old}

Dear Reid,

WOW! I cannot believe that you are 20 months old and that Daddy and I are parents to an almost 2 year old. There is something so special and wonderful about you at your current age. You are talking A LOT and try to say every word you hear. You are so fun and kind and loving to people around you, even strangers. 

I appreciate your desire to learn and your desire to communicate. It is so amazing to ask you a question and actually get a reply...well most of the time. :)

You are very much into firetrucks, animals, Papa, Mormor, Daddy and books. You are still fluctuating between having one nap in the afternoon and having a morning and afternoon nap. You have started pretending to put yourself to bed during the day, you look so sweet all covered up and ready to sleep...then you laugh and rip the covers off and nearly do a summersault off of the bed. You ask to go in the car a lot. I think we have a BIG case of cabin fever around here.

You are a risk taker when it comes to climbing....but that isn’t anything new, it’s just becoming more frequent that you risk your life. :) I love you Reid, and I’m so glad that God gave us you. Daddy and I enjoy your giggles and games. Most nights after we put you to bed, we miss you and talk about what makes us love you. :)

Love always,

Mama
