Two more firsts!



Eli has had another couple of firsts recently. We took him to his first Durham Bulls game a couple weeks ago. I think he had a good time but you would never get that from the picture above. The sun was right in our face to start the game and I think that had a lot to do with it. As the sun went down and the Bulls pitching held up, he was in good form. Next time we will try and get tickets earlier so we can be under the cover. The Bulls posted a 3-0 shutout for us in our first outing. Go Bulls!

The other first is not quite as cool. Eli has his first ear infection. Rebecca stayed home with him last Thursday, I was with him on Friday and little of Monday (he had his 6 month doctor visit). Believe me when I say Rebecca picked the right day to stay with him. He had a fever on Friday and cried for the better part of 5 hours. It was excruciating to listen to, especially since he rarely gets that upset. He's also stuffy and coughing a lot but his spirits seemed to improve some over the weekend. I'm hoping we are on the other side of it because he's so pitiful at times.

His sixth month doctor visit went well; we had to fill out a developmental questionnaire for him and he seems to be doing fine so far. Right now he weighs 15lbs 15 oz. and is 27.5 inches long.
