Elliott - 4/22/2015

Elliott ate whole wheat bagel and peaches for breakfast.  For lunch he ate a large serving of mac-n-cheese, most of ham, had bites of corn, and bites of apple pieces.

Mia and Cooper were playing and hanging on the front of the igloo and Mia said, "Gary, Elliott, Sophie!!  Look at me!!  I'm upside-down!"  (Elliott and Sophie are especially impressed Mia!!  Ha!)  Later Elliott was drooling (he does a LOT of that!) and Mia said, "You keep your spit in your mouth!!"  :)  Uhhh, he's really not spitting!  (Although I've gotten on his case for spitting and he rarely spits now!)

Lauralea was watching Elliott "read" aloud one of the books this morning and said, "I should get a video of that for my language class!"  So she got her camera out and naturally he stopped immediately!  After she left he probably read aloud again at least two more times!  Ha!

Yesterday afternoon he was playing near the neighbor's fence and their dog was just across the fence, although at first I don't think Elliott saw it.  That dog scares the tar out of Cooper - it will suddenly start barking loudly and fiercely and it's only a few feet away even though he's unseen on the other side of the board fence.  (And he barks LOUD!)  It scares Cooper and he runs and cries like he's dying!  So the same thing happened yesterday except it was Elliott this time.  Elliott didn't even flinch or jump!  He just stood there looking at the fence like "what is your deal dog!?"

Mia was hoarding toys in this purse (that you see in the picture) and not really playing with them; just keeping others from playing with the toys.  As soon as she put the purse down and was distracted with something else, Elliott moved right in and started searching - taking toys out and adding a few of his own as well.
