11/10 - The first part of November

So I'm gonna divide this post into parts: Eli and Aiden. Above is picture Andrea took while she was watching Eli during MOPs last week. I am very thankful she keeps him for me so he doesn't get as many germs in the nursery at church. MOPs stand for Mothers of Preschoolers and it's the first and third Wednesday of the month. It's lots of fun to hang out with other moms.
Above you can see that Twix loves to sleep by Eli. We keep an eye on her but she really likes Eli. She slept on his changing table for a few weeks and now is in the crib.
Below is a video of Eli just looking around and making baby noises. Eli is a pretty needy baby and needs lots of attention and touching.
Aiden is getting better everyday with Eli. He's not as scared to touch Eli and is starting to realize he's around for a while. I have to get up around 2am and 5:30am to feed Eli right now so I am getting some sleep but not as much as I'd like. Eli is a great eater and weighed 10 lbs, 5 oz last week.
Aiden is also getting very needy but it's probably because he sees us carry Eli around so much. Aiden is a great big brother. Aiden has started to get sick again unfortunately. He's also been testing his limits lately and showing his independence. The pictures below are from today. When we came home Aiden decided he didn't want to come upstairs with us so he sat on the shelves where we keep our shoes.

He's also gotten very picky about food. Every night is a little battle over something. The picture below is Aiden eating part of Brads roll after he was done with his dinner. He was happy as long as he got roll rather than eating his chicken nuggets.
Below is Aiden playing with his crayons. He was stacking them and got them pretty high (he normally only get 3-4 stacked before they fall over).
One of the other new skills Aiden has is climbing!!! He's learned over the past 2 days how to climb into the dinner table chairs. It's pretty funny.
