Eli at 9 Months!

Nine months . . . already? It seems like just yesterday we were meeting this sweet boy for the first time. Everyone tells us how HUGE he is for his age, and he IS our biggest baby! Starting out at a humble weight, he has grown much more quickly than the girls. At his 9 month check-up he was almost 21 pounds. Neither Emily nor Megan hit the 20 pound mark until they were 2 years old. But, he is also taller than they were at this age. His healthy appetite is a culprit for his great growth. Among his favorite foods are yogurt, pears and peaches, pizza, macaroni, green beans, spaghetti, cheese, and -- his favorite, by far -- ice cream!!!! 

Eli is also our most active baby. He gets where he wants to go, and chases the girls wherever they go. Among his favorite activities are baths (actually, any activity that includes water), taking walks, pounding on the piano and walking. And, big news -- little Eli is sporting his first pearly white! 

A big thanks to Dawn Hughes for taking time out of her busy schedule to snap some photos of Eli!
