Sleep, Poop, Eat, Repeat










While those last few posts were under my name, Spencer was the author, and he has been doing a great job of making sure we document the progress of our little boy. Today Eliot hit a couple of milestones. His belly button fell off and he surpassed his birth weight, weighing in today at 9# 12oz. The doctor was pleased, and so were we. While, to the naked eye, it would appear that he really doesn't do much of anything, it is clear that he has been very busy growing. In fact, that really has been his top priority and he has taken it very seriously. We took him out for a maiden voyage in his stroller the other day--more for mom's benefit than his, truth be told--and he spent it asleep, per usual. Ah well, there will be plenty of opportunities for seeing the world later on.

He is so cute Nora! Good for you getting out and about already! I can't believe how fast he is growing. Thanks for the pictures- it is fun to see Eliot and you guys with him.

What about the occassional squawking? Mine certainly have done more than their fair share of that. Hooray for getting out of the house! Helps to keep sane doesn't it?
