we think 31 lbs 2 ft 10 in
flu shot

16 months

Eli weighs 29 lbs and is 34" (both 90%)

We tested Eli's iron again, cuz it was low last time, but he was just recovering from the flu, so we were waiting to make ay plans for treating it. We are watching Eli's speech as well, since he doesn't have that many words yet, but that can be very common for a 2nd child because everyone is predicting his needs, especially Kiah.

He is getting some teeth. He has one molar all the way in, one that is half way in and one that is bulging and ready to break.

He loves to say the word "ball" and mimics us on a lot of other words. He might be saying "bottle" as well, but it sounds a LOT like ball, lol.

he loves to walk and run everywhere, but hates to hold hands, so it can be challenging at times, but we survive. Luckily, he likes to ride in the stroller as well.

12 month (at 14 months)

Eli had his 12 month check-up. (Ok I realize he is 14 months) He weighed 27 lbs 14 oz. and is 32.75 in. That puts him at the 90-95%. He is out big healthy boy.

Eli is getting to be quite the climber. He can climb onto the dining room chairs, so I imagine he can climb onto the table. The little stinker.

Happy First birthday

Happy Birthday!

I think we may have to switch Eli to a pack n' play to sleep. He LOVES sticking his legs between the slats on his crib, and occasionally he gets stuck. We may try and net him in first. We will see. It is so funny, cuz you lay him down and almost immediately he turns himself and sticks a leg out. too funny.

Circles

Eli Just did the CUTEST thing. He came into the office where I am and started to turn in circles. He was laughing so hard the whole time. Then he would get dizzy and fall down. Kiah does it all the time, so I am sure he picked it up there. It was making ME laugh so hard. So cute. I was afraid to go get my video camera cuz I knew he would follow me and probably wouldn't do it again. He was a bit fussy so I put him down for a nap. I hope he does it when he wakes up so I can record it and show Chris.
