First Bottle :)



Today was a first for Eli. He has really been reaching for everything in our hands when we hold him, especially our water bottles. So today we decided to give him a little bit of water in a bottle. It was adorable. He put it right in his mouth, like he does with everything, and started to chew on it. He eventually got the hang of it and started sucking on it. He LOVED it!! We couldn't pull it away from him. It was so much fun to see. It was also nice to see Mike holding him and giving him a bottle. Since I am nursing Eli I do all the feeding. In the end Eli barely got any water from the bottle, but it was a good start. He is growing up so fast :) I think we are going to start baby cereal this week, so that should be fun.
We usually go to church at 11:00 on Sunday, but we went tonight since we will be gone tomorrow. It was a fun experience. When we go at 11:00 Eli usually naps during mass. Well he was wide awake for Mass tonight. He was laughing, smiling and squealing almost the entire time. It was so funny. He wasn't loud enough to be distracting, he was just having some fun. He always does so well during Mass. He is such a good baby, such a blessing :)
