Two Months

Eli:

I can't believe how big you are getting, and how strong you have grown. You are steadily gaining weight; last week you were up to 12 lbs 12 ounces! That's 3 pounds more than when you were born! You're already holding your head up really well. I suspect you'll be walking soon (haha).

You've had a very exciting month. You met your Grandma Baker, and your Aunt Sunny. They both fell in love with you immediately (of course).

You experienced your first Thanksgiving. This is mommy's favorite holiday, because it revolves around food and family. OOoh, Buddy, the food was most delicious. I am so excited for next year, when you'll be able to eat some of it too! Yummy! We hosted Thanksgiving this year, where you got to meet your Papa Po, Aunt Andra and cousins Sean and Kasey.

You've started smiling, and cooing. Now we're waiting for that little smile to give way to a laugh. There is nothing more sweet than your smile looking up at mommy or daddy. That totally makes our day, little man.

We are looking forward to the month ahead; your first road trip home, meeting the rest of your family. It's going to be so much fun...

Love,
mommy
