Explosion

Elliot had a nice surprise for us the other day... I had him on the floor and I felt that his back was wet. I figured he'd peed up his back, like usual. Well, this was much worse than pee! He had a major blow-out! I ended up throwing the onesie away. Luckily, the blanket was salvagable.

Newborn pics!

I just realized that I never posted any of these great pictures my sister Molly took when our little man was brand spankin' new. I love them!

My brother also took some wonderful pictures. I just have to figure out how to get them on here..

It seems that Elliot already likes stories! I haven't read to him a whole lot, but the other night as I was reading he was so happy! (We read Dr. Seuss's ABC & Old Macdonald Had a Farm).

2 Months!

On Tuesday (the 26th) our little Elliot turned 2 months old! It has already been such a joy having him in our lives!

Early Walker

The other night Russ was helping Elliot "walk." Maybe if his Daddy keeps doing this, he'll be an early walker:)

Easter Party/ Easter 2011

I threw an Easter party the Saturday before Easter. ( I think I may just make it a tradition). My sis-in-law and her kids couldn't make it, but Molly and her girls came. We had a great time.

First we dyed and glittered Easter eggs (and Molly made a tasty lunch for us: French Dip & carrot fries)

Then the girls went on an egg hunt in the back yard

Ell pretty much just chilled

Last, we made Rice Crispy Treat nests

We went to Russ' grandparent's house in Provo for Easter dinner. It was the first time a lot of the extended family had seen Elliot. We had a delicious dinner & dessert (I ate way too much) and it was great visiting with family. I love Russ' family.

Farm Fun

Last Friday my sister Molly had the day off work. She and her girls came up and we went to the HeeHaw Farms to see the baby animals. (We missed Baby Animal Days in Logan) We dodged the Saturday crowds, which was nice. The kids were able to hold and play with the animals and there were no lines.

We took a hayride

Evelyn loved this cow! She said, "I'm like it's owner."

The girls each rode the pony

and the Animal Train

We all went down this giant slide (even Mr. Elliot)

He finally woke up toward the end!

The weather was absolutely beautiful! We had a great time at the farm.
