The First Post

I am starting this blog as a way to chronicle Eli growing up, share fun stories and adventures and mainly keep friends and family updated about our lives. I don't promise to always be interesting, but I do intend to include lots of pics of the little guy (and maybe video too if I can figure that out!). I am really excited about figuring out all of this "blogging stuff"...backgrounds, banners, layouts, comments... this thing is totally customizable and I am hoping I have time to figure it all out!

Time...now that is an interesting topic... somehow I have all the time in the world and no time at all right now. All Eli and I do is eat and sleep it seems with little in between, but still the days seem to fly by so fast like I have no time for anything else!

Today however is an exciting day, Sam and Max are coming over to play... well Eli and Max won't really play, but Sam and I will certainly have fun! We are planning on walking to the park, but it is really chilly out there so... we might have to figure out a Plan B. Hopefully, I will remember to get out my camera and take some pictures of our adventures with them today so that I can post them here!

In other news, Eli will be 1 month old tomorrow! I really want to come up with a fun way to celebrate or at least mark the occasion...creative juices haven't started flowing on that one yet! Also, he will have his 1 month check up with Dr. Powers tomorrow. I can't wait to see how much he has grown! Everyone says he looks bigger, but it is hard for me to tell because I am with him all the time. I have lots of questions for the doctor tomorrow... like WHY has he decided that he wants to eat every 2 hours all of the sudden and WILL IT EVER STOP?. Seriously, every 2 hours (2.5 when I am lucky)... that is a sure fire way to drive momma crazy!

As promised, a picture of the sweet boy! This is my current favorite! (Possibly because he is doing something besides EATING in it ... a rare moment).
