This month has brought a SERIOUS mommy attachment. Although I am absolutely loving the extra snuggle time, it has added a few extra tears to our day when my attention is briefly focused elsewhere. The 3 week long sinus infection + teething didn’t seem to help!

He’s weighing in at almost 22lbs. Just about as busy as ever. He loves all things boy. His word of the month is ‘car.’ Anything that has wheels and moves is a car. But pronounced with a serious Boston accent! He points to everything and says ‘dat’ for that. He’s really trying to talk more & more.
Each and every morning his daddy gets him out of bed. They snuggle on the couch and watch ESPN while I get breakfast ready & make Dan’s lunch. Makes my mommy heart so glad. I know that its the perfect start to Danny's day as well, everyday.
This morning I found Eli sitting in his timeout corner reading a book of mine. It just happened to be James Dobson's 'The Strong-Willed Child.' Oh boy...

It’s hard to believe that my ‘baby’ doesn’t have very much baby left.

We love you sweet boy!

On a completely unrelated note, we're asking for many prayers for my friend Brady. He's one of my best guy friends since middle school, and was wounded in Afghanistan this week. I just get absolutely sick thinking about it. He's doing well considering, but the 24yo husband and father that was in the vehicle with him is not. Covering Brady, his new wife Faith, and his entire family in prayer right now.
