"Guess How Much I Love You"

For Neal's birthday Elijah gave him the book "Guess How Much I Love You." In this book, if you're not familiar with it, the baby rabbit has a comparison going on with the daddy rabbit just before bed. They are comparing how much they love each other. The baby always goes first and gives an example, such as loving the daddy as much as the height he can bounce. Then the daddy says he loves the baby as much as the height he can bounce, which is higher than the baby. They go back and forth throughout the whole book until the baby falls fast asleep. It's so sweet.

A few nights ago Neal laid down on our bed with Elijah to read the book together for the first time. Elijah was staring at the book and the pictures the whole time. He was so interested. When Neal was finished reading the book they both fell fast asleep together. It was the most precious thing!

Elijah loves to touch and squeeze Neal's fingers every time he sees his hand. He's so fascinated with his big strong hands. 

When Elijah falls asleep he will cross his hands over his chest most of the time. 

In this case his hands were already on Neal's, so he just crossed them where they were and went to sleep. 

It doesn't get much cuter!
