Several times this morning Elliott was pointing at birds outside and jabbering about them. I took this picture when he was watching a pair of morning doves. I enjoy listening to the cooing sounds of the morning doves.
Baby Layla had just woke up and was hungry and I was busy for a few minutes in the middle of lunch. So I put the music thing (whatever it's called!) over the top of her and I liked how everyone was so interested in it!
When we were outside this morning I GENTLY bounced a soft ball off Elliott's head. Elliott loves that kind of play and he was chuckling and we were having fun. Bad Decision!! I didn't realize Reid was watching and I had started to take some notes for these Blogs when all of a sudden I'm hit in the head with a yellow (not so soft) ball and NOT so gentle! Ha ha ha! I told Reid, "Gary shouldn't have done that Reid; we can't throw balls at people!!" Especially from point-blank range with high velocity!! :)
I love Elliott's silly sense of humor. I'll do goofy things and he'll laugh like crazy. So this morning I was pretending to laugh and tipping my head backwards and laughing. Then I'd point to him and say, "Now it's your turn!" And he'd tip his head back and laugh. Pretty funny! Outside I was dribbling the ball around him and he was chuckling while he was chasing it. Then he held a ball out to me and I started drumming on it with my pen. And we kept at that game for several minutes. He gets such a kick out of silly little things like these that we frequently do.
