Christmas Tree
Last weekend we went out in the cold to get a Christmas tree. Uncle Brandon met us there with his pickup truck since we can't put our tree in our trunk anymore with the car seat in the way. Thank goodness Jenn got Elliot this fabulous snow suit, it has really come in handy this week with the cold and the snow. Josh, Elliot and I picked out this lovely 6 foot christmas tree while my parents choose an 8 foot tree that was really, really wide! There almost wasn't room in the truck for our tree :).

Video Update
I have been trying to catch Elliot smiling and making fun noises on video. Everytime I start the video he stops whatever cute thing he was doing and just stares at the camera. He is doing A LOT of smiling and cooing, I think I almost cried the first time he really smiled at me.

The family loves Elliot
Mary and Michael come over every Monday and hang out with Elliot while I get to go to the gym. It is a bonus for everyone. Elliot loves hanging out with Mimi and Pappa/Poppy/Pops/Poppop/Grandpa.
Uncle Ollie is ready to babysit. On Thanksgiving he practiced giving Elliot a bottle. Does this mean he is ready to be alone with Elliot????
On Friday, Elliot and I drove to Eugene with Grandma and had a beauty day with Jacquie. Luckily we got to see Uncle Chris, Aunt Marcy and Allie too!
Black Butte Weekend2008
Every year we spend a weekend in Black Butte with the family! We do lots of fun things like walk to the pond, go swimming, get massages, watch sports on tv and eat! I used to spend the weekend napping but this year I spent it breast feeding and playing with Elliot. I think Elliot enjoyed his first trip to Black Butte, next year at this time he will be toddling around with the other kiddos!
Uncle Brando and Elliot
Emily, Mallory, MaryJane and Ronan (my cousins' kids)
Grandma and Elliot took a short walk outside to find Louie.
Louie was so curious about Elliot. He wanted to help me feed him and play with him on his playmat. Louie even wanted to help when Elliot was crying.
Aunt Cindy getting some snuggle time.
Ronan played with Elliot for a little while. Ronan and Elliot were having a deep conversation about the crazy family. I think Ronan promised to protect Elliot from the crazies.
