*** 13 Months *** :]

*My lil man- you are 13 months today!!!! :]

*First off can I juuuust say- you look like a toddler ahhhh!!! SO.GROWN.UP!!! This also seems like a month where you learned the most ever- and I now feel like you are seriously growing up sooooo fast even more! (I believe it's the walking lil buddy) :]

*You are now walking and loving every single second of it. It is so much fun to watch you walk too- makes my heart melt!!!! I love when you follow Mommy and Daddy too- it's so darn cute! You get so excited to walk and we like to play the “I’m gunna get you” game, to see you speed up your walking and screetch for joy :]

*You are still eating very good and you are now down to only 1 bottle in the morning and 1 bottle at night (this is bc Mommy still wants you to have bottles haha and soon you will just have a night-time bottle only)- and all sippy cups during the day that you still refer to as a “ba-ba” :] I love that so much!! Your favorite foods are: pizza, cheerios, fruit loops, butter crème cookies, hot dogs, chicken nuggets, cinnamon apples, and just about anything really- you are not a bit picky other then not liking cottage cheese (and I can’t blame you a bit here buddy) :]

*You are now on medicine as of last Friday 2/12/10, that is helping your bathroom situation. The medicine is mirilax and you went from getting nothing out, to explosions that DO NOT HURT YOU and I am sooooo relieved and happy to see this for yooooou!! You will be on this medicine for 6 months to a year and go back for a check up in May. As of right now everything is going good and working so well for you and we can tell you feel so much better! SO HAPPY and feel so bad you ever had to go through any of that lil man... broke my heart every single time! SO relieved we finally found a solution!!!!! :]

*You go to sleep every night between 8:30pm and 9:00pm and you sleep the entire night until about 8:00am the next morning!!! Mama is so proud of you for this and you are such a good lil sleeper!!! You also take one 2 hour nap a day- that is around 10:00am to 12:00pm :] Mama also loves that sooo much because she gets every single afternoon spent with you buddy!!!

*Your favorite TV shows are: Barney, ELMO, Dora, Blues Clues, and of course as always, Praise Baby!!! You have and prolly always will love Praise Baby and you are becoming a HUGE fan of Elmo- which is soooo cute! Mama and Dada even bought you a big Elmo, and Elmo shirt, Elmo DVD, and an Elmo book for Valentine’s day too and the last Praise Baby DVD you don’t have!!! :]

*Your favorite things to do are: SMILING, laughing, walking, playing with any toy possible to get to, clapping, waving to people, giving high fives to us, being a good baby all the time, playing peek-a-boo, screetching for joy, saying “haaaa-yaw” and putting your hands up in the air and back down when you say it, babbling and saying words such as: hi, dog, ba-ba, mama, dada, gaga (he is callin Noah and I both gaga lately haha), Zach, and just about any word he can try and say he is doing so good about. He also loves to say STAR and he knows where his binky and Elmo is if you ask him where they are. He also will say “moooo” when you ask him what a cow says (guess I have good teachin skills huh?) :] Eli also loves playing with any kids at all (especially the sweet kids that I babysit), you love love love babies, and of course spending time with your Mommy and Daddy- you are sooo wonderful lil man and make our days complete each and every single day by all the love you show us and just how great you are in general!

AND as everyone most likely knows by now (bc of a prior post and FB haha): Eli issss going to be a big brother eeeek!!! Noah and I are soooo excited and can’t wait! I am due Oct 2nd and we just can’t wait. Eli is such a good boy, he is so easy and so helpful already and he is 13 months old. He will be soooo great and so cute with this baby! He loves babies so much so I am so excited even more for that! I am so thankful and blessed to have such a great boy like Eli (that will still alwaaaays be my baby) and I am so proud of him. He has been great from day one, which made our decision of this even more clear because of how good he is and everything!!! Eli and lil one will be between 20 and 21 months apart (based on when the lil one is born) and that was our exact plan so it worked out sooo good and we are so thankful SO much!!! The funny thing as well is the fact that Noah and his brother Zach are the same age difference and they are soooo close, so it makes me so happy! We are going to find out what the sex of the baby is so no worries on that haha! I already feel huge, even tho I have a long way to go! Oh well- it’s a part of it and so far I have only been nauseous every so often which I am very thankful for also!!! CAN’T WAIT EEEK!!!! I will keep everyone posted on here with pics and lil one’s news as the time rolls along :] There issss a small baby bump and this is my 8th week of bein preggo ha. However, I keep tellin myself it is because it is my 2nd :] I go back to the Dr at 10 weeks, on March 5th for a checkup and we should be able to hear lil one’s heart beat eeek :]

My lil baby Elijah- I love you dearly!!! I am so proud to be your Mama and so thankful for a lil boy like you!!! You are the best baby- and I will always be here for you and love you so much! Mama can’t wait to see your sweet face every single day and be home with you every single day. You are going to be a wonderful big brother- and we just can’t wait. We know you will adjust so good and be such a good boy. I am so excited and it will be so much fun soaking up time with you and lil one after he/she is born as well during my time off for a short time! You have made my life even more complete then I ever thought it could be. I am so thankful for a wonderful hubby and son… who I love more than anything in the world. Lil one is so lucky to have a good Daddy and brother too… life is wonderful!

HAPPY 13 MONTHS LIL ELI- my sweet baby boy!!!!
