Water baby

It seems we have another water baby. We went swimming tonight for FHE. Both kids loved it. It was the first time for Elliot and he was so happy and adorable as usual. Sadly no pictures. We've been putting him in the bath with Libby lately too which they both think is lots of fun. Libby begs me to put him in with her. I have to hold him up in the bath since he can't sit up by himself yet (getting close!) and that means I'm usually soaked from all the splashing and my back is usually really sore from bending over. It's pretty adorable though and usually worth it.

I can't believe Elliot will be 5 months old tomorrow! It really flew by so fast. Way faster than with Libby. He's really found his voice lately. It's so cute to hear him sing/talk to himself. He loves his reflection too. We have a little baby mirror that ties onto the crib and I've been laying him in there next to it and he'll coo and smile at himself for a long time.

Libby says hilarious things all the time now too. She is starting to say her own prayers now too. She thinks it's fun to pray. After we finish a prayer she'll say "again!" and so we pray for something else. Tonight her prayer went something like this "heavenly father, please blesses george, please blesses maya, please blesses leo, blesses mommy and daddy, please blesses baby elliot, (we finally cut in with in the name of jesus christ) Amen! Again?" She will have very blessed stuffed animals :) and we feel blessed just listening to her cuteness. There seem to be too many s's in bless so it comes out sort of like blesses. Another thing Libby likes to say is "idaho," She thinks it's really funny and clever when she says it. And she says "what the heck!" ALL the time. Another cute one is "oh yes yes yes!" and "oh there you are!" and her conversations with her peg people are always very entertaining. I've also recently noticed she knows a surprising amount of songs and most of the words to them. I got a few videos of her today singing that I'll hopefully get around to posting soon.

this ended up being a lot longer than I planned. My kids are just too cute I guess, I can't help but brag about them. :)

  1. Where would Libby & Elliot's long distance fans be if you didn't love them to pieces and tell us about them?
