We are having a much better time compared to 8 or 9 months ago. We love that Eli's personality is developing and showing, even though it's sometimes stubborn like his Momma!! Every day it seems he gets bigger and has something new to show. Just a week since he started crawling, he's everywhere and has picked up some speed. He LOVES to stand up and wants to walk so bad. The girls at school mentioned to me that we'll be in trouble soon because he is ready to go. We hold his hands and let him march in place. He has even taken a few steps on his own going from Tim to me or vice versa. Tonight he stood on his own in one place for almost 10 seconds. He's figuring out the balance thing and is so proud of himself. He also discovered the stairs tonight, crawling over to them and promptly pulling himself up. Such a big boy. At last Friday's sick dr appt, he weighed 23 pounds 2 ounces. This Friday is his 9 month check up so we'll get all the stats then (and of course update everyone!).
He's still not 100% from being sick but he did at least sleep a little better last night - fulfilling his promise to Tim for a decent night's sleep. He was fussy for the girls at school today but overall he's getting better and based on his school chart, his appetite is starting to come back. We worry when he doesn't eat at night but as long as he eats throughout the day, we're just following his cues. So all good news on this front!
Ready to start climbing
