Elijah

It's amazing to think Elijah is already 11 weeks old.  He is growing so fast just like his brother did.  At his 8 week check-up he weighed 13lb. 6oz.  That's 5lb. and 6oz. more than birth!  He has grown 5 inches already as well.  Unfortunately, he's been put on acid reflux medication like Noah was.  He would cry for about 3-4 hours at night and choke on his spit.  The only thing we could do to calm him was put him in this wrap carrier I have and walk him up and down the street.  The neighbors got to know his cry real well.  Jason calls him the floating head.  Thankfully the medication worked right away and he's such a happy baby now.  He gives us big smiles and is trying to laugh.
Deep in thought!
I think my sister put it best when she said Elijah looks like an asian Noah.  It is so true!  It's hard to tell in these pictures but Elijah does look more like Jason and Noah than me.  He has beautiful blue eyes just like brother too.  Which is funny because Jason has brown eyes and I have green.  His hair also has more red in it when the sunlight hits it. 
I put this picture in here because every time I see it, it cracks me up.  My family might understand.  For some reason I think Elijah looks just like my cousin Jeff here!  Don't you guys think so or am I too sleep deprived?!?!
