Merry Christmas!

Eli is now about 7 1/2 weeks old. He's growing so much! His milestones lately are that he can trigger the music on the toys dangling above him on his playmat, he can hold his head up pretty well and he routinely sleeps 5-7 hours at night, much to my relief! :) Christmas was a wonderful day where Eli got to meet the rest of the cousins, aunt and uncles in the family. He handled it all like a champ, being passed around the room, sleeping in everyone's arms.

We have no set routine with little Eli yet, but I try to get out to the Mommy support group weekly with him to meet other moms and babies. Eli's visitors have all told him how adorable and good-tempered his is. He rarely cries and is such a happy baby. I love his smiles and coos- he's started "talking" to me as I talk to him in the morning. It completely melts my heart!
