Elliott - 5/15/2015

Elliott ate bites of oatmeal and ate canned prunes for breakfast.  (The front of his hair might be a little sticky from laying his face in the prune juice!  Actually, it was more like splatting the paper plate on his own face!  Ha!)  For lunch he ate several bites of hash brown casserole, ate biscuit, and mandarin oranges.

I'm sure you already know this, but shaking his head "no" doesn't mean no.  Ha!  Pretty typical!  "You wanna read books?"  I asked.  Elliott vigorously shakes his head "no" and then comes with his arms held high ready to sit on my lap.

He was playing on top of the play table and I was on the other side.  He said, "Hi hi" and comes crawling over to me.

We had a friend stay last night (and the next two nights) and Elliott warmed right up.  He was on Bill's lap within a few minutes.  Elliott was also delighted that Cooper's Dad Casey wanted to "give him five."  Which, as you know, is Elliott's favorite game right now.  I took this picture when Elliott was watching to see where the company was going.  "Hey, come back and play with me!"

He worked hard at the legos and made the interesting shapes you see in the picture.  Cooper said, "What's Elliott making?"  And Cooper and Reid then went over to watch him.  I'll bet Elliott worked at it for more than 15 minutes.  I LOVE how engaged he gets with his projects.  And apparently the big boys like watching him too!!  :)
