    6. Yes! Napping with the baby on my chest was always #1 special baby time for me too!! Eli is precious and I'm glad he is so easy going for you. (But I always wondered if it was the newest baby being easier or that mommy & daddy were just more experienced and relaxed about it. LOL)

      Love you guys!
