Slow down Eli!

Eli is growing so fast! He had his 6 mo check up this week and has changed so much in just one month.

He weighs 16.4 pounds and is 27 inches long!
He is developing perfectly according to the pediatrician and is even soon a few things ahead of schedule!
He rolls both ways all the time, crawls in a circle and scoots everywhere!
He can sit up without support for up to 5 minutes!
He is really into blowing raspberries instead of eating baby food- hopefully it passes shorty
He has been a horrible horrible sleeper for the past several weeks (or 6 months) but yesterday took two 2.5 hour naps without waking up!! He is staring to sleep a little better at night but still needs to eat once
I still swaddled him with one arm out but he escapes that in a second
Loves loves anything fuzzy- toys, stuffed animals, blankets, jackets :)
Is so stinking happy and fun!
He loves to laugh, babble, and help me fold laundry
I just wish he would slow down his growing a little bit, I'm not done enjoying 6 months!

  2. seriously if you want to see a happier face when you are feeding him it has to be because you are feeding him something good for kids... not yucky squished squash. he would like an oreo and a cup of chocolate milk, or a pickle or a little pile of black licorice candy. do i need to come and rescue this little guy from the vegetables and fruit routine and give him some treats that are what little boys like!? he seems to be round and healthy enough that even if he just plays in the food, the amount he absorbs through his nose holes seems to be adequate.
