Autumn fun!

All is well here with us.    I'll just give a quick update:

Dr. visits:
Eli had his second Dr. visit on Thursday of this past week. The check up went well and we got great news about his blood work and both his liquid and solid samples - all is a-okay! So happy and relieved to know this good news.  He did have to have 3 shots though and a PPD - OUCH!  He wailed but recovered quickly.  We went back this morning to have his PPD checked and all is good.  Thankfully he enjoys the fish and the toys at the Pediatrician's office, b/c he's had a couple of tough visits.  Today was quick and easy though, so that's great.  Did I mention how much we love his Dr.?!  We do. She's so great!!!  :)

He's sleeping well and eating well.  He plays hard and loves to explore.  He is learning so much.  We continue to add foods and English words to his lists.  He's making so much progress and so quickly.  It's remarkable! :)



Autumn:
Eli has been enjoying playing with neighborhood friends, his cousins, jumping in piles of leaves, Highland Park, story hour at the library, visiting his Grandparents, Powers Farm Market, and pumpkin pie this week! Isn't autumn wonderful?  And even more so this year when falling leaves or apple cider elicit squeals of delight from our little man.  He is such a happy child!  :)

We're going to carve a pumpkin with him tonight and he keeps on talking about it with such enthusiasm, though I know he's not quite sure of the details.  Don't know if he'll actually like it or not... we'll see.  Will share photos soon.  Tomorrow is our neighborhood Halloween parade for the kids - that will be fun!  I know he'll love seeing all the kids and the costumes for that.  Hope the weather is okay.

Autumn photos soon...
