Eli - 5 months old

Just like a precious friend said about her baby boy, a few days ago, "I haven't figured out a way to stop him from growing up yet."  Sadly, I think the second child grows up even faster than the first.  With that said, Eli turned 5 months old yesterday. UNREAL!  Wasn't I just giving birth to him last week? 


Here are Eli's newest milestones:


-He sits up, unsupported, very well
-He reaches for who he wants
-He eats baby food like a champ
-He's very interested in "big people" food
-He's becoming much more observant and wants to participate in the things we do
-He's starting to let you know, very quickly, when he's disagreeable with something
-He's already irritating his sister by grabbing her hair anytime it is within reach
-He's still melting hearts with his smile
-He's, pretty much, perfect


On the agenda for today.....his first haircut.  We've been noticing he looks like he's wearing a hairpiece on top of his head.  We're going to get him "cleaned up" a little.
