5 months

5 things:

1. no longer the baby of the family.... olive's taking over.
that was a short little run, but he's still the only boy!
maybe he'll get a friend in june.

2. he sleeps in gramma's closet... 8pm - 10am straight yesterday. but sometimes he gets up for a 5am feeding.

3.he plays in the exersaucer, the swing, the bumbo, but his favorite is to hang in someone's arms. he has the funniest look on his face (mouth open, basically expression-less) and just hangs, taking it all in. (there's a lot to take in).

4. he takes a bath in the bumbo in the sink in the laundry room. i realllly wish i had a huge sink to bathe my kids in at home. maybe one day...

5. nicknames include tank, moose, honeybun.... and ivy calls him "baby eli" (sounds like ee-yi).  but sometimes when he has a dirty diaper or he's fussing she'll say "eli james!"  haha.
