Elliot 3 months





Ellie-girl, somehow it has been three months and by the time I post this it will  be past four months!
-You can give us a big gummy smile, but you prefer to smile with your mouth closed. It is sweet and unique and I love it. I call it your little line smile.
-You still sleep in a rock n play by our bed. We really need to work on getting you into your crib.
-Bless you child you sleep through the night most nights, again BLESS YOU!
-When we carry you, you prefer to tuck your head under our chin and watch the "goings on"
-You come alive in the evenings, its the best time to hear you talk
-It is so hard to know exactly what your personality will be like, but right now you are strong, sensitive and fiercely determined. During christmas, we would often put you on your playmat and turn around and find you under the tree. 
-You seem much more serious than your goofy brother. You rarely laugh (although you smile all of the time)

Dear one, we love you so very much and cannot wait to see you grow into yourself and who you will be.  Know this, you are loved ever so much by your daddy and me and of course by your brother.

Today




Today was a good day, full of "hi momma's", hugs, and your head resting on my shoulder. I want to remember days like these because tomorrow might be full of "no's", "mine" and fit throwing. I want to remember today because the tomorrow where those boots you are wearing will fit will come all too soon.
