I love this child’s curls

Monday, August 31st, 2009

Does Desmond not have the best curls ever? If only the back of his head won’t turn into a rats nest instantly. He has the best curls ever. I wish my hair curled like his. I am really hoping Eloise also inherits the gorgeous curls.

Napping

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

For nap time, we normally all go up to the bedroom and I turn on Backyardigans for Desmond while nursing Eloise down and then I turn it off at the end of the episode and nurse Desmond till he goes to sleep. So in these pictures I am normally between the two of them. Once Desmond is down I normally lay there a bit and then bring Eloise downstairs with me, where she plays and naps the rest of the afternoon till Dan gets home. Desmond normally sleeps till Dan gets home.

Say Cheese!

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

So Desmond really likes the TV show the Backyardigans, and in one of the shows there is a giant robot that says “cheese” trying to get his picture taken. Desmond has taken to saying “cheese” every time he sees a camera lately. So I had the camera out and my little ham saw me and started saying “cheese!”, which was quite appropriate since he was eating cheese at the time.

Sit Sit Sitting

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

Here are some pictures of Eloise sitting. She is really good at it now and doesn’t need her arms to keep her up anymore. I noticed in the pictures it looks like she has a huge head. Her head really isn’t that big!

A couple of random Eloise pictures

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

The other day I looked up and Eloise was sitting against a cushion. Neither Dan or I had propped her up there, so she had gotten up there all by herself. She has done it once or twice since then as well.

I also found her asleep on the floor a couple of days ago, with her toy around the top of her arm, she had apparently played with it like it was a bracelet.

Sleeping on Daddy

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

I have a bunch of pictures from earlier this month to post still, so I am going to be posting them in the next day or two. First off here are a couple of Eloise asleep on Dan. All snuggled up with her Daddy. And one pictures of K-line since he rarely gets his picture taken these days.

Eloise Laughing

Friday, August 28th, 2009

Here is Eloise laughing, she has such a great baby laugh. I love it!

Eloise starting to cruise

Friday, August 28th, 2009

Last night I looked over at Eloise and saw her pulling up on the cushions that end up scattered across our living room every day, since Desmond doesn’t believe cushions should stay on the sofa. She was working on pulling up and cruising, eek! She is only 5 and a half months old, I thought I would have at least a few more weeks. There are two videos, the second one has Desmond saying Cheese as well.

My cars not Eloise’s

Friday, August 28th, 2009

Here is Desmond taking the cars away from Eloise, or at least moving them out of her immediate reach. He doesn’t want to share his cars with her.

Eloise on the move

Friday, August 28th, 2009

Dan uploaded a bunch of videos last night, we took a bunch last night as well. So I have a couple to put up here. This is the first one from a week or two ago of Eloise doing her crawl to get an object she wants. The second one here is Eloise doing her crawl last night after she finished with her cruising attempts.
