Grampa Rick came to visit with us this weekend. Which worked out good since he did'nt have power at his house. It was a good time for Eli to get some Grampa time. We love you Grampa!! ...
Eli with daddy....kicking! This is Eli's first time swimming. The water was warm. We practiced kicking, floating and going under water. He did so good. He's going to be a great swimmer!Eli floating on his back! ...
Soooo Cute! As soon as Eli sees the camera he gets so happy. He just gives us all the big smiles we could ever want. He is wearing his custom "biddley buns diapers" (These are the AIO diapers I talked about in the previous post). They work really well and wash great. They should fit for as long as he will need to wear diapers. Because the velcrow is so adjustable, these go up to...
Eli hase been eating his socks and toes now for the last few weeks. Its been very cute. He also is sleeping much more these days. Last night he slept from 6:30 till 12:00 and then from 12:00 till 4:00, then woke up at 6:30. This is the longest he has slept. And all in his crib (which is still in our room and seems to be working really well for everyone to get some...
So we had a pretty fun weekend. We went out to lunch and coffee with the Arney's (Jessica, Justin and Brendon) on Friday and then on Saturday we went to Huberts Tree Farm. Huberts has been a tradition since we moved to Bremerton. This year we went with a few different families but didn't buy a tree. That's how much fun it is...you don't even need to leave with a tree :). We'll have our...
Eli with ToddTaryn with EliGrampa and EliNoah and TiaNoah and EliWell this weekend was full and fun. After a yummy thanksgiving we headed over to the otherside of the water to see the Marshalls(tia grama and todd grampa). My dad met up with us their also, so Eli got to spend some time with grampa cox. Then on Saturday morning the schulz's (Angie, Tony and Noah) came over to the Marshalls and Eli and Noah...
Today we spent some time this morning in the boppy sitting up. We haven't done this alot because he usually just tips over. But this morning, with the help of the boppy he did pretty good. Though I think he was mostly concerned with how he was going to eat his green frog. I also did some research on the web looking for clothe diapers to fit his ever growing Adams bottom. At first I...
Eli is getting so big. Now he can jump in his johnny jump up. Right now he really loves to chew on the edge...but he is alsostarting to get the whole jumping thing also. Today we just hung around the house and played. Tummy time is getting to be more fun also. His little legs are starting to bend and kick now (more then before)...pushing against the floor (I think I even saw some air...
The count is in. We haven't known how much Eli weighes over the past few months. We couldn't get to the 2 month appointment, so it turned into the 3 month appointment. I thought for sure he was going to be like 20 lbs, but he is 24 inches long and 14.5 lbs. 50 % for both areas.They grow too fast nevertheless! ...
Biddles in the morning! Daddy is getting the fire ready, so I snuggle with Eli until its warm enough.... ...
This weekend Jeff's mom Faith came from OR to visit with Eli. We mostly just lounged around the house, except for Saturday, we went to Vashon Island to visit the Kuhns. Grammy had a whole bunch of fun songs and games to do with Eli. He really enjoyed spending time with her, he was in great need of some Grama time. Since all grama's are a plane ride away, except for Tia grama who is...
This is Eli with daddy on the Ferry. We went to visit some friends in Seattle who had just had a baby. It was Halloween so we thought that Eli should get the most out of his costume that the Kuhn family gave us. Our friends thought that is was very funny when we walk into the room with Eli in Costume. Later that night we went to the church Havest Party where he fell...
Biddles is lucky enough to get to share the bed with the rest of us...he's a co-sleeper baby. A novelty even at three months he understands...at least I think that's the case considering the smiles we get when he wakes up. It's precious to snuggle up at some odd hour in the night...him knowing i'm right there for whatever he may need. Eye's closed he searches for my face with his little sweet pudgy fingers....
This weekend we went to the pumpkin patch. Some friends went with us and we had a great time. Eli loved the all bright colored pumpkins. For the first time it was actually hard to get him to look at the camera. Eli had his first hay ride pulled by a tracker and Jeff took him through the corn maze. After all the pumpkin picken' we went back to the farm for some warm apple...
Here is Biddles doing potty practice. IPT or EC stands for Infant Potty Training or Elimination Communication. We have a friend who told us about it who had a six month old who was going potty on the toilet, we couldn't believe it! Doubtful, at seven weeks I started making the "sssss" sound every time he went peeps (like she told me to do). Only after a day or two of doing this he started...
This is biddles hanging with some of his friends. These little guys were all born within the last 6 months (Biddles being the youngest). We had a baby shower at our house for our friend Anna who is due any day!! Can't wait to meet our new friend Abbi Jane! ("whoo hoo, a girl" said biddles) ...
This morning we woke up and had some fun tummy time. Eli likes to kick the balloon ball really fast. It makes a jingle noise. He gets so excited when it gets going really fast. I thought it was funny that we were listening to Jack Johnson's "Banana Pancakes" song. If you haven't listened to it you might want to check it out. It was a good start for the day.... ...
Yesterday Eli and I helped Jeff move some wood from the trees that got cut down in the yard. This was the first time in the backpack, he liked it so much that he fell a sleep. I think he's sticking his tongue out at the camera. Good Boy!! ...
This is the first posting for The Adventures of Biddley Adams! This last weekend we went to Salem, OR to visit Auntie Jessie and Uncle Tim (Jeff's older brother). Biddles' first road trip. He did really well for having such a long drive. We met up at Red Robin on Friday night, then did some late night shopping at Target. Saturday we went to a farmers market where we got some lunch and some fresh...
