Happy crib time

He loves his crib....sorry about the mobile in the video. I think Elijah's cuteness overtakes the annoying cinematography.

Yay for nice heads, boo for colic.

I'm sure I've lost readers considering that I post so infrequently, but oh well, for the one or two of you out there, here is an update for you!

October and November were hard months for the Huff family. Hank and I got swine flu and Elijah's colic really flared up. He is still quite colicky, which gives him a little more control of the household than I would like, but it won't last forever. Okay so that was the not so happy news....here's the good stuff!


Elijah had his two month check up (over a month ago) and he is doing really well, in the 50th percentile for both height and weight. All of his doctors and nurses concur that he has a very nicely shaped head, seems like an odd compliment to me..but it's a common one for Elijah.

He is cooing and laughing and smiling more than any other three month old I know.

Lately, in all his cuteness, he smiles at himself in the mirror and then gets shy and buries his head into my shoulder. So far his personality seems to be a pretty good mixture of both of us. He is very social, but also has some shyness going on there too. He's pretty sleepy when he first wakes up and that's when we have our best cuddles (that's from me). However, he also wakes up smiling and laughing (that he gets from Hank).


Overall, he's a joyful, happy baby....except when he is inconsolably screaming....


The last three months have been the hardest, most rewarding, difficult, and happiest months of my life
(and I haven't asked Hank, but I'm sure he feels the same).
