Two Weeks Old

Eli is now 19 days old and is already beginning to change.  At his 2-week appointment, the doctor said that he'd gained all of his birth weight back. Also, that morning, he lost his umbilical cord, which meant he could officially take a real bath rather than a sponge bath.  How fun!  Then that afternoon, I noticed that he began to track objects with his eyes.  So much can happen in one day when you are just two weeks old!

The girls are loving him - a couple of little mommas they are.  They kiss and hold him as much as we let them. 

Don has been home to give me much needed help since Eli came.  I will sure miss him when he goes back to work next week.  We have thoroughly enjoyed this time of joy and trials as we learn what it's like to become a family of five.
