One Week!

One week ago today we were celebrating the birth of Elijah John.  He has taken over our hearts with his sweetness.  So far he has a calm, laid back personality-which is very different from the girls as infants.  Jon and I are both in a little disbelief that this will continue...but for now we are very thankful! :)  Elijah does have his likes and dislikes.  As of now, we have noticed he likes to have his hands up by his face.  Sometimes he will find his thumb to suck or even his whole fist.  Other times he just sets his hands on his cheeks.  He also likes to be warm and swaddled - as long as we don't swaddle his hands in so he can get those up by his face (as mentioned before!)  He dislikes being naked/getting his clothes changed or getting his diaper changed.  These are definitely not his favorite things!  As you can guess, he also isn't crazy about taking baths.  A little about Elijah's birth: We decided it would be a g...

Elijah is Here!!!

My lack of blog updates lately have been out of busyness and anticipation of the arrival of the newest member of our family.  He finally made his appearance on Wednesday, February 18.  We are very happy to have Elijah John enter our family, making us outnumbered - children: 3, adults: 2!! We are all doing well!  Elijah has been a very good baby for us so far and we are enjoying all his sweet snuggles.  He has two big sisters who love him very much and jump at the chance to help take care of him, hold him, or sing to him!   Meeting their baby brother for the first time.    A few pictures from my phone of Eli.  There will be many more to come in the next few days(whenever I have time!!) :)
