Pulling Himself Up!

On Monday, Eli pulled himself up to stand all by himself for the first time! He got to stay home with daddy Monday due to President's Day, and he was supposed to be napping but Jeff went in to check on him and he was standing up in his crib, holding on to the railing, just looking around his room! Crazy. And the little monkey keeps trying to stand up in the bathtub now too. He still isn't really crawling, more like dragging himself around the floor with his arms, so I suspect he might be one of those babies that just skips crawling and starts running around. We shall see!

7 Month Pics and Videos

Here are some pictures and videos from the past month, as you can see we got quite a bit of snow in our mountains!

Eli is almost 8 months old now. I'm pretty sure he said "momma" like he meant it the other day, he wanted me to pick him up. I also think he said "bye bye" after I said it when I was getting off the phone with my mom. He isn't crawling for real yet, but he drags himself along the tile floor with his arms to get where he wants to go, it's pretty funny! He will figure it out soon and then we will be in big trouble in afraid. We are already starting to move stuff up out of his reach. And he is getting pretty good with his sippy cup now, I think he actually can get water out of it! The silly boy LOVES water, who knows why but I'm glad he does.

Eli still doesn't really like to eat baby food and usually refuses to eat any for me. So I usually give him the bowl and spoon and he has fun playing in it. Can't you tell? This was a carrot day.


Eli was sitting well at this time but he would still fall over sometimes, so I put my snuggle body pillow around him, it worked really well.


Nice hair!
