Eli's First Portrait
June 7th, 2006
This picture was taken by the hospital photographer when Eli was just about 20 hours old.

Just in case you're wondering - he's calling little Ella Sawyer who was just down the hall!

   
Elijah's First Bath
June 8th, 2006
Elijah was not happy at all with his first bath.  Because we couldn't submerge him in the water until his belly button fell off - he got a bit cold - and angry!

I was crying the entire time with him - just trying to hurry up and get it over with so I could wrap him up, hug him, and keep him warm again!

Now that his belly button is fine and his circumcision has healed, Eli loves his bath time!

   
First Nap with Dad
June 9th, 2006
I thought it was a little quiet upstairs - I couldn't hear any noise coming from the nursery.

   
First Bad Hair Day
June 16th, 2006
OK, so its really not a bad hair day - we just had fun after bathtime!  Either way, it didn't stop him from having sweet dreams at naptime!

   
Eli's First Independence Day
July 4th, 2006

Here's Elijah in his first patriotic outfit of Red, White & Blue.  Believe it or not, the shoes aren't that big on his feet - they just about fit!
