1/21 - Eli's 4 month check up

Tweet

It's been a busy couple of days. Since Eli is generally in a better mood, we've been able to do more tummy time and time in the Bumbo (see above picture). That really tires him out though (see pic below). As you can also see, Eli is starting to lose his hair (same thing happened to Aiden).

After looking back at the pictures we have from Aiden, I decided we needed to try Eli in the exersaucer. He is doing much better. Aiden has lots of fun (see below picture) but I think Eli gets a little mad with Aiden playing with his toys (see 2nd pic below). Just kidding. Eli likes to watch Aiden play and he smiles at him so it works out perfect.
On the 18th Eli turned 4 months. It was a fun day and we even got to talk with Brad on Skype. Below is a video of Aiden and Brad talking.
The toy above is one that Ms. Michel (Aiden's daycare provider) got him for Christmas. He loves it and even has a cool helicopter in his hand that lands on top on the help pad.

Eli is doing better. He has some rough times still but is doing pretty good. He is smiling and talking a lot more and there are some cute videos of him. In the one below, he was talking and having a good ole time.

Aiden has decided to have some interest in the big boy potty so I went and bought him one the other day. He would only sit on hit while holding on to me. As you can see, he eventually would sit on it by himself. We aren't potty training per say but we are talking a lot more about the potty.

He's so proud of himself. He'll be really proud when he actually does something in the potty and the music starts playing!!

We made edible play-doh the other day and this is Aiden playing with it. He's not too sure about the texture of play-doh put is getting better about it. He doesn't like to get dirty so at least he is touching it!

Below are two more videos. One is of Eli in the swing. The other is Aiden on my back getting a ride around the house.

At the doctor today, Eli weighed almost 16 lbs which puts him in the 75th percentile for weight and 50% for height. We have a big boy on our hands!! Big and healthy though!!
