So if you haven't realized by now I'm not the best at keeping up with my blog. And I'm more in to posting pictures than blabbing about the baby but I suppose some of you may want to hear our stories anyway:) Eli is doing great. He makes all sorts of funny noises and faces, he squeaks all the time and does really good elephant and terradactyl impressions. Aside from his squeaks and grunts he's a really good sleeper. Several nights we've had to wake him up after 4 1/2 hours to feed him. At this age he's not supposed to go longer than that without eating but by 1 month if he's willing he can sleep through the night so we're anxious to see if he'll be up for that, wouldn't that be awesome?! Cross your fingers for us;) We had a photographer come to the house Tuesday to take his pictures and they turned out great. We should have them by the end of next week but there's probably some copyright issue about me posting them here so we'll see about that. They're adorable though! Well, that's all for now. I think I'm going to try to squeeze in a nap.

New Pictures

Here are some more shots of our adorable little Eli. He likes to play (during the brief moments when he's awake) and loves to sleep on his daddy's chest. He's also already a Colts fan:)

Baby Eli

Eli finally came to see us at 7:30 pm on Tuesday August 5th. We went in at 7:15 am to be induced and 12 hours (and several needle sticks) later had the most beautiful baby boy we've ever seen. They had to try 5 times to get the epidural (that means 2 numbing shots and 1 huge epidural needle sticking me in the back multiplied by 5) but finally they got it and boy was it worth it! I'm in the lucky 1% who gets what's called a "wet tap" with the epidural which means they went in too far and punctured something that leaks out spinal fluid. It causes really bad migranes for about 8 days but again, it was all worth it. Okay, enough about that, here he is in all his glory. He had quite the cone head at first!

The Baby Room!

Well here they are, the long awaited pictures of the baby room!! Eli will be here any day now and

his room is ready to greet him:)
