I can't believe that my little guy is already 3 months old!! It's been an amazing time with him in our world, and we are so blessed to have him! Here's some of his stats!
15 lbs, 5 oz
23 inches long
He's in the 95% for weight and 50% for height.
He smiles all the time and is almost sitting up by himself. He's usually a pretty happy baby (except when he's hungry)!
He had his first surgery back in February, and unfortunately, it didn't fix the problem, so he is going to be having surgery again on May 12. It will be a different procedure, and hopefully this time it will work and fix his problem. I'm so sad that he has to have surgery again, but I guess it's better that he has it now and won't remember what happened! We won't know if he has to stay overnight again until after the surgery. It just all depends on how the surgery goes and how he's doing after the anesthesia. So, please keep us in your prayers on May 12!
Here's some pictures of our little man!

3 Months Already!
Sesame Street Live
The weekend before I went back to work, Eli and I went on a date. I didn't tell Eli where we were going, just that he was going to have a date with Mommy! He was so excited! When we drove by the arena, Eli spotted the trailer with all the Sesame Street characters and asked if we could go! I told him that was where I date was to, and he got SO excited!
He got a little spoiled :-) He got an Elmo toy, a t-shirt, and Elmo balloon, and popcorn. He wanted to rush the stage and talk to all the characters. He was soooo cute and we had a blast!
DRESSED AND READY TO GO
Potty Training
Well, we're in the midst of potty training Eli and boy is it an adventure!! We've had our good days and bad days, but he's getting the hang of it and starting to do really well with it! Today he's had NO accidents - whoo hoo!
In order for Eli to be able to go to his preschool in the fall, he has to be potty trained. If that's not a motivation for him, nothing is! I made a potty training chart for him, so everytime he uses the potty, he gets a sticker, and when his chart is filled out, he gets a prize! 
Trip to the Zoo
Before I went back to work, I took the boys to the zoo for a day of fun. The weather was BEAUTIFUL and we actually got a sunburn! It was so great to be able to get out of the house and spend some time with my boys, one-on-two! Here's some pictures from our day!

Eli's Special Shopping Cart
He beeped the horn the whole way through the store - maybe we should have rethought that one!!
The Dentist
Eli had his second dentist appointment the other day, and he did GREAT! The dentist loves when Eli comes into the office and said he wishes all his patients were that good! No cavities and a great smile to boot!
Fun in the Sun
We had some beautiful weather the beginning of this week, so we took advantage of it and spent a lot of time outside playing!
