Oh Happy Day!!

At exactly 11:39 am on this day last year, my little Eli made his first appearance into the world. It's truly amazing how quick time flies. I can vividly remember seeing him for the first time and thinking "wow, what a blessing I've just been given." However,I have to admit the next words that come out. "And wow! He's a moose!" He was the sweetest, most beautiful moose I had ever seen!! I can also remember the overwhelming sense of love I was feeling. There were so many family and friends awaiting his arrival alongside Jon and me. Life just couldn't have been any better at that moment in time.




Fast forward to October 23, 2010. Here are some of the things little Eli has accomplished...

smiling
laughing
clapping
sleeping 10-11 hours a night!
getting his first tooth at 7 mos, now he has 8!!
feeding himself, holding his own bottle
drinking from a sippy cup
saying "ma ma", "da da", "go go", "mo mo" (for more)
roaring like a lion
giving eskimo kisses and hugging
playing with rocks in our landscape
taking rides in his stroller
dancing
pretty much walking-little wobbly,but walking nonetheless

My little cub is growing way too fast!!
