Big Sister and Little Brother

Elijah is two weeks old! He is already 8lbs5oz and is 21inches long. He loves to eat his bottles, but has gotten really fussy. We are still using premiee bottle nipples and he is choking less frequently so we are glad. We will be switching to regular bottles next week. We switched his formula and hope this helps him rest more peacefully at night. He sleeps great and peaceful during the day and at night he whines and fidgets. Hopefully, the new formula will help resolve some of his discomfort.
Mattie is very sweet to Elijah. She checks on him in the pack-n-play and loves to see him when she wakes up in the morning! Her tantrums are decreasing as well. I took her to a regular check up at the ENT and she has an ear infection. Poor thing! We did not even notice. Thank Goodness for that appointment! She seems to be in a much better mood since the antibiotics have started. Mattie loves school! She goes to our church for a few hours on Monday and Friday. Daddy has been taking her since he has been off and is amazed at how she runs off to "PLAY" while the other kids are crying. Her teacher sent home a very nice note about how she is a great helper at school and she knows the class routine. We are proud of our big girl!
