Elijah is 6 Months Old!


Elijah has reached half a year, and he continues to be such a joy in our lives. Using our primitive weighing and measuring system (holding him on the scale and marking on a sheet), he is weighing in at 13 pounds 14 ounces and is over 26 inches in length. He remains under the 5% curve for weight (due to his recent nursing strike), but we are hopeful that as he is eating more each day he will quickly climb the charts. He is still riding the 50% curve for height and will probably be a little tall like his daddy.

He is doing all sorts of fun things like "talking" to himself, almost sitting up on his own, grabbing for things, holding people's faces, smiling at everyone, teething on everything, drinking from a sippy cup, eating rice cereal, chewing on his feet, "reading" books, and making us smile every moment.
We love this precious gift more and more every day, and we cannot imagine our lives without him!
