Eli: Most Improved Eater
Following this nasty stomach bug, Eli has really become a much improved eater! I can't honestly say that he was a "bad" eater before. He was only bad in comparison to Tobey who was and is the model child eater. But Eli often fussed at bottles, finishing anywhere between 2 and 6 oz. of a 6 oz. bottle, fussing if nursing didn't produce milk fast enough, etc.
But the last few days, he's been finishing all his bottles (except for the bedtime bottle which I am okay with since he has just eaten dinner) and eating more solids than before. And he seems to be eating everything, not fussing over straight fruit anymore. He could just be making up for lost time (or lost weight) from being sick but I hope this turns eating into a positive experience for him and I don't have to worry as much about his weight (Tom says he's already feeling heavier).
And he's been sleeping "in" until 7AM instead of 6 these days. Whoopee! Now if only Tobey would sleep in until 7.
