Elliott is officially 8 months old now (+ 2 days). Lately, he's been battling an ear infection (finished 2 bouts of antibiotics and still not out of the weather) but he seems to be a trooper because he really does not show any signs of discomfort or pain. The bad news along with that is it is difficult for mom and dad to know when he is not feeling well. We're taking it one day at a time. Yesterday, he weighed in at 19 pounds and 7 ounces.
Daddy reading a book to Elliott. I don't have a picture, but Dad taught Elliott how to high-five!! It took three days of reminding him and now he is a pro!!! Left hand, right hand and both at the same time too! He just loves it!
On Friday, February 18th, we played outside on the sleeping bag while Dad grilled.
Rare picture of Elliott with mom.

Elliott crawling over and sneeking past the pillow blockade between the leather chair and couch.
This was mom's favorite hideout spot when she was Elliott's age.
Not sure how he felt about peas for dinner.
We have like 30 shots of happy Elliott after dinner on his 8 month birthday. This is just one.
As a Texan, you know every year the Friday before the Rodeo comes to Houston, it is Go Texan Day. Here is Elliott dressed up for his first ever Go Texan Day as a proud 8th generation Texan.
Look at them boots!
After Matt, Bryce and I ran the
Rodeo Run this morning, the whole family headed out to
Cedar Creek Cafe. On the way there, we discovered his bottom right and top left teeth are coming in!! He must like odd numbers.
Elliott is 8 months and 2 days old. Mommy and Daddy couldn't be happier.
