Yesterday Grandma Marilyn was over to visit/play with Eli and she bent down to sniff his butt to see if he needed a diaper change and he decided then was the perfect time to let out a loud toot (Eli doesn’t DO silent) right in her face! She said she nearly crapped her own pants. ha ha ha ha. Love that kid, although I doubt it would be as funny if it was my own nose insulted by an infamous Eli toot :) Ok, it still would be :D I never found flatulence to be a very funny topic like most people do until It was my own infant son doing it unknowingly, then its hilarious!—Like when I hear him stretching on the monitor and then a toot follows. Never fails to get me and daddy belly laughing.
In case you were wondering, we’re all doing very well with the new sleeping arrangements. I can’t wait until he can sleep with blankets and pillows, it only seems right. I wonder how babies tolerate sleeping all night, flat on their back with no cuddling of blankets and no less than 10 pillows like their mommies??? But he does it so I won’t complain.
I want to send a shout out to my uH-MAZ-ing momma who has been so hands on with Eli and making THIS momma’s job a thousand times easier than it should be. Its because of her that I’m not a sleep deprived zombie, that motherhood has been such a painless transition for me, and that Eli doesn’t have to be in day care. I truly wish all new mommas were guaranteed a helper like her. I LOVE you tons mom! Muuuuuuah! You take being an “awesome Grandma” to a new level. Sorry to all the other grammies out there, the bar has been set.
Blessed mommy,

Awww...so sweet!
Your Momma has been a God-send for sure, Linds. Wish we had that kind of help when you and your cousins were widdo biddy babes. Sure does make a difference with snapping back quicker, doesn't it. :D
Now.....I am seeing Nesler(like Grampa Bobby) in little Eli now. My my, how they change back and forth. ;D.
Love the pics and your baby blog.

You are definitely blessed that your mom is so hands-on and helpful! Not all grandma's are like that. I am sure it't not even a chore to your mom either, just lots of joy to be able to spend time with her grandbaby :-)

Have you had that moment where you realize OMG THIS is how my mom feels about me? I mean you know how much she loves you obviously, but NOW you know what it feels like, kinda cool ;)
Cassi YES I understand now. Its a whole new way of thinking and viewing life. And Jeri I think I'm doing HER as much a favor as she is me sometimes because she just adores Eli. She says she needs to wean herself off. ha ha. And Auntie Glenna I think of mom and I think of grandma and I can't believe they are even mother and daughter. Sooooo different!
