Our little Eli is 1 month old already! I can't believe how time goes by so fast, but I definitely feel like I'm savoring the moments more because I know how fast they grow up. So far he has been a great eater and sleeping pretty good through the night (about 4-5 hours at a time). He has been more fussy though because of his never ending stuffy nose and his tummy hurting.
As of today I am going to start eating really healthy and exercising, so hopefully with cutting out bad food that should help his little tummy feel better! Jaden loves his little brother, even a little too much sometimes because he tries to maul him to death, so we have to keep a close eye on them both. I will admit life with two kids is for sure way more challenging and am not really sure how we could ever add one more to the craziness of our life, but only time will tell I guess.

*Jaden & Eli*
It's still kind of weird to me saying that I have two kids or just saying the word "kids" but I love it! This is a very random post hahah.
So Maybe all mom's of two feel like this at first or maybe it's just me, but right after Eli was born and we got settled in at home I just have felt that I'm not being there for Jaden 100% and he is neglected now by me. Of course he is still well taken care of but I can't do it all for him anymore and it makes me a little sad. I'm sure I'll get past it but I hope he knows I love him with all my heart and that he is still my sweet little angel.
Anyways, Jaden is really starting to love Eli and become very fond of him. Jaden was super sick pretty much from the time we brought Eli home from the hospital so he was not able to hold him until just a few days ago..MELTED MY HEART!
I love my two sweet little boys, and yes life is definitely more challenging and sleep is hard to come by. But hey it's a short time in life and before you know it they're off on missions, college, and marriage, so I'm trying to saver the moments I have when there young even know it can be hard at times I still love it.
Josh is the most amazing daddy to these two little boys. Especially Jaden since he has been attached to the hip with his daddy since Eli has been born.
Love this little onesie and couldn't resist buying it. One day soon I hope to take a picture of both boys in there big/little brother shirts together.
We heard Jaden crying in Eli's room and found him like this stuck on the floor in the bumbo hahahhaha. Josh and I just stood there laughing for two minutes while he struggled to get out. It was too funny to not take a picture.

*From crib to big boy bed*
I was not planning on putting Jaden into a toddler bed until he was around two and a half or even a little older. He still sleeps great in a crib and can't get out which makes my life easy. However, since little Eli was born and is nursing all the time Jaden will wake up from his nap and I can't go get him right away so he has to sit in his crib until I'm done. So Josh and I talked about it and thought maybe he is ready now for a big boy bed. Well we took the plunge and he is now in a toddler bed, which is so cute and fits him just perfect. He is in no way attached to his crib so taking the crib wasn't hard, but putting him to sleep is definitely going to be more of a challenge now since he has freedom. I put him down for his nap and he cried, and tried getting out of his room for about 10 minutes but after that I went and checked on him and he was sound asleep in his bed. I admit this change is good, but at the same time emotionally a little hard for me because it means he is growing up and way too fast.
From baby to big boy!

*Honeymoon*
Josh and I went on a wonderful honeymoon to Cancun, Mexico for 8 day 7 nights in an all inclusive resort. We had a blast from relaxing on the beach, swimming with the dolphins, snorkeling, all the way to taking a tour to the Chichen-itza Pyramids (that was Josh's favorite). All and all it was a very fun and romantic honeymoon and we owe it all to my new in-laws for making it possible!
