Kid Update

 Oliver's 4 Month Old Accomplishments/Stats:
* 14.5 lbs and I believe 25 inches long...I forgot the paper with his stats at the doctor's office!
* He can hold his head up really well and is super duper strong.
* He can roll from his tummy to his back, but not from his back to his tummy quite yet.
* He is sooo happy and smiley.
* He loves to coo and giggle.
* He has survived many blows from his 2 year old brother including being tipped out of his car seat onto the ground 3 times. 
* He sleeps through the night until 7:00am and when he wakes up he just coos and smiles.  Best. Baby. Ever.
* He loves swinging in his car seat from a climbing rope Andrew rigged together.

Elliot's 2 Years 1 Month Old Accomplishments:
* He continues to be the "class clown" who makes everyone laugh.
* He idolizes his dad. 
* He continues to be OBSESSED with motorcycles.
* He loves to play with Grandma Marsha and Papa every Monday, Motorcycle Grandma and Bryce ("Bice") on Tuesdays, and Aunt Katie on Thursdays. 
* His speech is coming along slowly but surely.  Next week he starts Stepping Stones Preschool at Kindering twice a week where he will receive speech and eating therapy. 
* He is really good at folding his arms for prayers, blowing kisses, and making us laugh.
* He loves to walk with his hands in his pockets.
* He makes me cut all of the tags out of his clothes.  I'll never be able to figure out what size anything is when it is Oliver's turn to get the hand-me-downs.
* He is often seen walking around the house with his motorcycle helmet on.  Safety first.  If Andrew is home he has the matching helmet on as well per Elliot's orders.
* He loves listening to music in the car.  He nods his head to the beat and gets very angry if you turn the music down to answer the phone or talk to someone in the car.  He's a bit of a thug.
