i can't believe that eli is nine months old already. it's crazy to think that he has been out of my belly for the same amount of time he was in my belly. in honor of eli's 9 month birthday i thought i'd write a list of nine things i'm thankful for in these past 9 months.
9. for eli's laugh and smile (who can resist a baby's laugh).
8. joel finding a job so i can stay home with eli.
7. being able to stay at my job and still engage that part of my brain and still work with my patients.
6. our burley. family bike rides are some of the most fun we have on the weekends.
5. that eli is healthy, happy and ohhhh so fun.
4. that we have a home, food in our bellies, health insurance, clothes, a garden, cars that haven't broken in a while...
3. for new friends that have babies.
2. that eli loves to explore and is interested in how things work.
1. our marriage. i'm not sure how we'd do it if we didn't have each other. having a kid really can strengthen your marriage if you're willing to work on staying connected and working through the good and the bad. (sleepless nights and all).
Yay! What a fun idea for a post. I can't belive Eli is 9 months already!
