Happy 2 months sweet Elijah Dean

My sweet sweet boy,

wow what can i say? you are such a precious gift in my life, one that i can't ever live without... I love you sweet boy more than words can say. you are definately our little angel.

the first month or so was kinda hard for the both of us. but now we have gotten to know one another so well and we are definately a great team! i didnt used to know your little cries or what you wanted, and i think you didnt really know what you wanted either. but now i usually know what you want or need and when you are tired and you know me pretty well too. you know that i will do anything for you anytime you need me. some might say you are spoiled, i just say you are loved. you are what i wake up for and the last person i think of before i fall asleep. daddy is still very special to me but we both have to say you are what we both live for now... 

you have been smiling more and more and you have what i call a "silent laugh" that is so precious... you sometimes smile when mommy tickles your legs or belly other times you dont know what i am doing! you hold your head up so well and like to look around. when i hold you while sitting on the couch i let you put your feet in my hands and you try to climb over my shoulder... you dont know just how to do it yet but you still try so hard! mornings are your favorite time of the day. you wake up smiling and talking and kicking your legs like crazy. you love waking up with mommy and we talk and laugh for a long time. then it's time to eat and you are off for your first nap of the day. you are usually awake for an hour or two but then it's time for your naps and if you dont get them you get overly tired and it's hard to get you back to sleep. at night around 9 you get very fussy and want mommy to take you to her room and feed you so you can fall asleep and go to bed... you are sleeping so well for mommy and it's great!!! i even enjoy waking up and feeding you at night because you are so sweet and go right back to sleep afterwards. you are sleeping four to five hours once you are put to bed and then another three hours after that. and then you lay by mommy for another hour or two before you are ready to get up!!! you are now around 24 inches long and 13 lbs. you are growing so fast!!! i can go on and on about you Elijah but i think this is enough. i just want you to know that i will take care of you for as long as God allows and I love you more than words can say... Happy 2 months sweet baby boy. we prayed so hard for you and now you are already 2 months old! God is so good!
