Birthday Boy

I love all his facial expressions, so there are a lot of pictures to capture them all.

What is this stuff?

still no too sure
what a ham!

Definitly not camera shy
 
his hair was caked in cake

Victory!

I still can't believe it's been a year since this guy was born! Elliot still seems pretty babyish to me, which I love. He is so cute and happy and silly all the time. He brings such joy to our family.  We went to Utah for the weekend to meet our newest niece Cassidy who got blessed on Sunday. She is such a sweet heart, I love babies. We also had a fun little party for Elliot since we were there on his birthday and were surrounded by family. I had the opportunity to go see my best friend Carrie's little baby Samuel that morning. He was born 14 weeks early at 2 lbs 1 oz, but is now up to about Elliot's birth weight. The day I saw him he was 3 lbs 8 oz, which is only an ounce smaller than the smallest Elliot got. It was really cool to me to really see how much Elliot has grown and how amazing his life has been. We are so blessed that he really has had no problems from his early arrival. He is on track developmentally and the happiest kid I know.

Elliot's tricks:
-"fives"
-claps
-touch down
-waves
-crawls like a pro
-walks around furniture like it's no big deal
-amazing dance moves
-jabbers away and squeals/screams like a girl....a lot
-stands for a couple seconds
-repeats "cracker" and says "mama"
-throws a ball pretty well

Elliot Loves
-mac n cheese
-baths
-pears
-bottles
-yogurt bites
-music (especially taylor swift)
-balls
-playing with Libby
-touch/feel books
-cell phones
-toys that make noise
-Daddy's hair
-being thrown in the air

Well, he loves a lot of things. I am also pretty certain that Elliot is the cutest little boy on earth! i love that these pictures capture his adorableness.
