Elliot's little book

This is the little interactive or quiet book I made for Elliot for his birthday. All the pages are now sewn together and he does seem to enjoy feeling the different textures and at times will trace the letters.

26 Weeks - Pie Week!

At 26 weeks the baby measured about 14 inches long or the length of this big piece of banana cream pie! We thought Elliot would dive into this, but he was pretty skeptical of the whole thing. He did venture a little taste of the whip cream, but no huge mess pictures.

We have had a fun, but busy month! Here are some highlights:

Elliot received some really fun packages in the mail!

Man this kid likes to have his mouth open!

A visit from our dear friends John, Andrea & Jack

Jack let Elliot borrow one of his many light sabers - he seems to be a fan!
Thanks Jack for being so sweet to Elliot!

A Trip to the Field Museum - I'm posting this picture because I have so few pregnancy pics taken this time around - this was at 24 weeks~

A visit from Grandma Carol - she brought a tractor for Elliot's birthday, which he is loving. Somehow my mom was here for 5 days and I have no pictures of her and Elliot - that is so sad!

Hanging out with good buddy Savannah!

23 Weeks

Yet again I'm posting these pics over a month late! One of these days I'll be on time! Oh well! Anyway, these pictures were taken on Valentine's day/Elliot's birthday. The baby was 23 weeks and weighed just over a pound or about the weight of a large mango!

Hopefully meeting his baby brother or sister will go better than this!

1 Whole Year!

Elliot had his one year check up a few weeks ago and he was a very brave little boy! He had a few shots and a needle prick in his finger. Here are the little man's stats:

Height: 30 inches
Weight: 20lbs, 7oz
Head Circumference: 47.2 cm

This is a new face - a mixture of whining and smiling! Oh joy!
I call it his lemon face
