Elliott - 2/10/2015

Elliott ate waffle and hash browns for breakfast.  For lunch he ate chicken & cheese quesadilla, carrots, and mandarin oranges.  After lunch Mia was wanting to help Elliott drink his milk out of his cup.  She said, "He wants a drink!"  Ha ha.  So I told her she could hold it for him and he drank quite a bit of it.  He started pushing the cup away and Mia yells, "Hey! He's pushing it away!  That's not nice!!  He needs to drink it all!"  (I think she had an agenda!)  But she figured it out and said, "He doesn't want anymore!!!"  :)  Good job helping Mia!

Mia and Cooper were building a blockade around the igloo as their first line of defense to keep Elliott out of the igloo.  Elliott wasn't even trying to get in, but I was the only one aware of that!  I was actually keeping Elliott on the other side of the room while they were building.  Mia eventually became aware of what I was doing and said, "Gary! You're my hero!"  Ha!  Silly Mia.  She makes me laugh.

When they were done Elliott went over to explore!  Cooper had also stashed a large pile of animal toys behind the chair because he thought for sure Elliott was after those as well.

Elliott gets so excited when the music comes on and we do some dancing and/or clapping.  He starts clapping too and squealing like crazy.  I also want to mention that he climbed up on the top of the table we have in the play room.  He'd made it onto the bench before, but today was the first time to the table top!  :)  He was much more cautious than I thought he might be!  Which is a good thing!!
